Pros

Competitive salary, great people at the IC/team level, and lots of scope for progression and movement within the company.

Cons

Constant reorganizations. The company can never seem to settle on what VP you've never heard of is running what arm of what org. And when they get switched up every few months, the new leader wants to shake everything up.

Leadership at the highest levels never seems to understand the technical implications of the things they want built, and that's not even thinking about the endless chains of redundant middle management.

Overall, less interested in building products that people will want to use, more interested in selling inventory access to corporations, and turning their sites into gross, ML-driven messes to leech more money from consumers.
