Pros

Flexibility Interesting work Talented colleagues Market leader in industry, good for career

Cons

Leadership at top is nearly nonexistent Workloads are back-breaking Too much focus on short-term cost reductions at expense of real growth Top leadership suffers from arrogance and elitism causing them to make dangerous uninformed business decisions No loyalty toward valuable talent below the most senior ranks Constant reorganizations with little rationale Cost cutting that affects employees - severe case of "us vs. them"
