Pros

Very safe job and relaxed atmosphere. The salary is very competitive and plenty of interesting projects and career opportunities. Since I joined the company seems to be improving in every sense.

Cons

It's still a huge companies with all its idiosyncrasies. The review process is a bit of a mess, although it seems they are trying to improve it.

Pros

You will learn professionalism. Apart from this, they have so many products, in which you are free to roam around.

Cons

There are so many people in each team, that your visibility and recognition sometimes gets hidden. There rating system is relative, thus, atleast 5% of people will fall in worst bucket despite of their best efforts.
