Pros

- Flexibility - Great benefits - Free to drive innovation - Amazing work/life balance

Cons

- Its a big corporation so getting traction for projects can be hard. Loads of diplomacy and politicking needs to happen. You have to drive it because nobody else will - Every two years they shake the snow globe and make arbitrary cuts and restructuring - Senior management Goldfish syndrome (30 second memory inside a glass bowl)
