Big Company In Need of Better Tools for Agility
Pros: Great Benefits! Like seriously top class benefits.
Competitive salary.
Chance to work on projects with huge reach
Cons: Depending on the team, some of the tools you use to develop can be serious productivity killers. I'm talking build times in excess of 20 minutes as just one example.  Have sometimes been blocked for multiple days dealing with infrastructure issues.  Along with that, if you're on a team that is playing catchup with Google or other competitors then there is tons of work and aggressive deadlines.
