In general, it's a good place for your experience
Highest concentration of smart people to learn from.
Free breakfast, lunch, and dinner (if you stay late).
Good compensation level and benefits.
If they let you go, they compensate.
401k vested only after 3 years. They usually let people go extremely quick. There are no institutional systems really; it all depends on your boss (learning, career advancement, travel, work evaluation, etc.). If you fall out of favor and were doing a great job, nothing can protect you. Lots of brainwashing from management about "company goals."
More integrity.
