Pros

Great exposure to good technology at one of the tech giants.

Super benefits like transport, food (likely to go), health, education, home internet, online resources (LinkedIn, Lynda, Pluralsight, O'Reilly), and book reimbursement.

Software licenses to almost any software.

Great workspace.

Mac. Phone (+ SIM).

Cons

Lacks proper leadership from top to bottom. No vision for the future. A lot of resources are wasted doing maintenance of infra and on-prem resources. No effective way of encashing great technology at Yahoo. Compensation is not very competitive. Work-life balance is not good unless a request is made.
