Pros

Nice benefit package. No pressing deadlines (depending on the division). Smart people. Volunteering culture. Real international environment. In-house trainings (tech & others too).

Cons

Long wait time for approvals (while projects are on hold).

Decisions are often made multiple layers above employees.

"Morganized" tech stack (many of the things you use are modified/specific to the firm, and resources are often hard to find and/or outdated).

9-hour workday (with lunch break).
