Pros

- Benefits package is really, really good -- health, gym (Pro Club), fringe benefits, etc. - Coworkers - intelligence, personalities - Dev's get own office.

Cons

- Oncall rotation -- maintaining a large online service regularly woke me up at night with service errors. - Big company / red tape sometimes abounds -- both for development of features and getting logistical stuff done.
