Pros: 1. Employees have many benefits and spoils.
2. Great place to learn and develop your skills.
Cons: 1. Sometimes, in some teams, you don't have a lot of responsibility and you don't do interesting things or develop. I guess it's relevant to any big company.
2. The high-level management and the ways decisions are taken could be improved.
