Pros: Strong talent and product ecosystem. Technical middle management. Legitimate focus on user privacy internally. Great office & environment design.
Cons: Depending on the team, there may be middling product vision and infra. Promotions and pay come slowly. You need to really advocate for yourself, else no one will.
