Pros

You're working with the smartest people in the industry on a lot of tough problems, so expectations are high. But there is a lot to learn if you pay attention, and the teammates are very supportive.

Cons

The intense pressure can be overwhelming, so expect to see a lot of turnover. It's hard to remain motivated at times if you feel that you're falling behind.

Advice to Management

Let employees take a break from time to time. They're only human.

Be a bit more communicative, and throwing a happy hour goes a long way.
