Pros

It's a decent place to start one's career at, you get a lot of exposure to the inner working of a large corporate environment, and can learn a lot of things if you are paying attention

Cons

Overall culture is abrasive and aggressive, although there are plenty of talented people, recent hires during the pandemic have shown markedly lower overall bar. There were L5s we hired in my team during the pandemic that don't know some basic CS concepts like concurrency, DB indexing, etc.
