Pros

The culture is positive and the least toxic I've ever experienced. I've personally never seen anyone get fired or PIPed (though it supposedly can happen). This can be good and bad, depending on your perspective.

Cons

The bureaucracy and inefficiency that comes with being a big, old company.

There is very little incentive structure to work hard. Turnover is extremely low, so there are few opportunities to move into management. Despite this, in my org, there is one engineering manager for 15-20 individual contributors, and managers are hard to get a hold of when you need them.

Advice to Management

Create more opportunities for management. Managers are stretched thin, and ICs are left with little support.
