Pros

Complex because of legacy code that needs to work while rushing forward with new features. The culture is changing and becoming more fair.

Cons

Very hectic and poor work-life balance. Need to perform at very high energy levels to get recognition. Need to do visible work most of the time. Poor planning and overcommitment.
