Pros

A well-known company that users like to use the software. So your work is seen, if that's important to you.

Cons

There is no tangible recognition for a good quality process, no structure to help you succeed in your role, nor any support to get there in a chaotic and painfully ad hoc delivery cycle. Read this as: no one can make any decisions by themselves, and a company of 5000 is dictated to by 3 people. One of which openly brags about a "wartime" approach to staff performance. How about an inch of sanity in product development, team empowerment, and a culture of quality and encouragement? Do not expect empowerment or autonomy in this environment, and do not expect to be cared for.

Unless you're a chop shop engineer and love to be told what and how to do it, repeatedly for the same feature. Walk away and keep your morals.
