Pros

Strong culture of innovation, with lots of really smart people working on tough problems.

Cons

Infinite politics, a bad promotion process (very subjective, regardless of your achievements or lack thereof), non-existent psychological safety, too many people scrutinizing the same thing, infinite doc reviews. Managers don't need any data to back up their annual evaluations.
