Pros

Great benefits, lots of resources for learning, friendly coworkers, and a flexible schedule. Your work impacts a lot of people.

Cons

The workload is usually higher than what you can get done in 40 hours/week. There is some incompetence in some of the teams we work with, and corporatism does slow things down. Compensation is throttled by an open agreement between several large companies, including this one. Engineering is discouraged from pursuing a management path.
