Pros

Most folks will tell you the same. Perks!

If you are fresh out of college, you will learn a lot.

Cons

Too many to list here, but here are some:

  1. The leadership team lacks direction.
  2. Who you know is far more important than how hard or how much you contribute. It's a very political environment.
  3. The cupcake culture is all fake. The "share your views" is fake.
Advice to Management

Create a trustworthy environment and hold people accountable to it. Innovation will follow.
