Pros: Salary, people, stock, benefits (though it has been cut down; hope it is temporary), perks, free food, cab. Work-life balance (though team dependent).
Decent scope to learn technical stuff. Always engaged, which is good; you will never feel you are wasting time. Overall, a good place to work.
Cons: Though the pay is decent, it still needs to be revised, considering the net revenue and the pay of competitors—easily two to three years behind. Bonuses can also be increased.
