Interesting work
Pros: - Friendly, smart people
- Interesting work & ability to work on exactly what interests you if you drive for it. 
- Relatively good work/life balance in comparison to some competitors. 
- I am a fan of the newer open workspaces.
Cons: - It's huge, so experiences across teams can be quite different. Again it largely comes back to who your individual manager is. 
- As with big tech companies, career progression can be slower than say a startup, due to competing with a lot of other smart people.
