Pros

Great technology to work with. Fairly smart people. Great benefits. Appropriate working environment.

Cons

People are rewarded for visibility and an art of talking, rather than for real work.

Blame culture prevails despite an effort to "vanish" this behavior.

A lot of politics and intrigues.

Enterprise buzz and demagogism.

Extremely frequent reorgs and leadership changes.

Poor work-life balance.
