Pros

Smart people. Good engineering practices. Free food onsite three times a day is an essential convenience factor.

Lots of opportunities for travel. Interesting projects. Compensation and benefits are very generous. Lots of cool perks, fun offsites, etc.

Cons

Capricious high-level management direction means some projects don't make sense. Working across many time zones in distributed offices is challenging at times.
