Pros

There are a lot of benefits to work here. For example, there's always something new or invigorating happening at work. Friday fun exists, for example. Monetarily, the pay is good for the city that I live in.

Cons

Not transparent. Misleading information about your salary on the offer letter. Allow there to be more understanding about job responsibilities and don't be so rigid about it.

Pros

Great work-life balance Excellent location Strong benefits Interesting projects Powerful brand Great resume builder

Cons

It's big! The company constantly re-organizes, so it's possible to get lost in the shuffle or work on projects that are not an executive priority.
