Pros

Industry-leading technologies, great projects, and some of the most talented people I've worked with throughout my career.

Given the company's size, most decisions are made quickly and start with engineers, going bottom-up.

Cons

Work-life balance is not great. While I've never been forced to work overtime, it was always my choice. The atmosphere here pushes everyone to always deliver more, always raise the bar.
