Pros

Lots of smart people. Exposure to large-scale architectures.

Great benefits if you can stick it out for the long-term.

Cons

Lots of disjointed groups. Work experience can vary greatly from group to group.

Only minor pockets have transitioned to cloud and big data so far. The primary deployment environment is Linux + Oracle.

Work can get delayed by bureaucracy. Dozens of groups, each responsible for a specialized segment of the architecture. Getting any changes done can require a slew of tickets, which you have to manage.

No hesitation in letting people go during market downturns.
