Pros

There are ridiculously good benefits: healthcare, offices, work-life balance, 401(k) match, PTO, and WFH.

Cons

There are constant reorgs, products and teams being moved, and a realigning of values every single year. Simply put, if you're not working on an AI product or on ads making money, your team is not a priority. For this reason, people are constantly worried about being laid off.
