Pros

Impressive amount of internal tooling. There's a tool for everything, and it's built well.

Cons

Very political. If you're not friends with the management, you will be PIP'd no matter how hard you work.

Benefits are below average for such a large, well-known company.

Management ignores effort estimations from engineers. It's understood you have to work nights and weekends to finish projects.

Majority of the work done there is product development, so you're just shoveled stuff from the PMs.
