Pros: You don't see a lot of mass firings in the engineering department. They are happy to put you in a position to do a job that you may not be considered for in another company because of lack of experience or qualifications. Free parking, coffee, and occasional lunches.

Cons: Like others have said, they have trouble getting rid of dead weight and difficulty motivating top talent to stay. It's very much a sit down and shut up environment. Feedback is not encouraged. Everything is political. It requires a policy and procedure for everything. It is common to see people thrown under the bus. Getting basic tools to do your job is impossible. There's lots of lip service to software development methodologies in use, etc., but no execution to back it up. Turnover is high.

Pros: Work-Life Balance Open Culture Higher Transparency

Cons: Higher management is too packed, with not enough opportunities to lead projects.

Pros: Strong, great, and famous company, very respected outside.

Cons: Big and slow-moving giant, not very strong in cross-site collaborations.
