Pros: - Strong benefits.
- Work on software that the entire planet uses.
- Loads of internal opportunities.
- Get to work with the best of the best, surrounded by super-smart people.
- The business model: sell you things you want at a fair price (not give you things for free in exchange for all your data).
Cons: - Poor management.
- Historical experiences hold little value.
- Only the highest performers are valued.
- Too much politics; it is more of who you know than what you know.
- Noisiest ones in the room are the ones that are heard.
- In recent years, too eager to make changes for change's sake.
- Too much top-down decision-making.
- Overly PC. Diversity was valued as long as it met their definition of diversity. True diversity of values was not valued unless your values met their values.
