Pros

Great place to start career....observe major holidays

Cons

HR pretty much stands between you and meeting the team. I have been on over 10 interviews at Hearst but seems like HR determines the fate of being selected as a valid candidate. I can imagine how many good talent doesn't get to meet teams. Very rare to move up within company.
