Experience level: Junior

Powerful company, too internally focused
Pros: - Extremely smart people
- Very professional organization
- Great working environment and benefits
- Especially good on the technology and sales sides
Cons: - The place is massive, and can feel like a giant machine.  One way this plays out is that entrepreneurial ideas tend to get diluted and implemented slowly
- The overall culture focuses too much internally, not enough on external competitors
- Sometimes the internal competition dials up a bit too high and collaboration dials down
