Pros

growth opportunities, competitive total compensation packages, global project scopes, huge global network, business writing culture

Cons

lots of bureaucracy that can stifle speed/ingenuity/relevancy, aggressive/competitive culture, only hire candidates who are better than 50% of those currently in that role, work/life balance is rarely encouraged, business writing, you will either get burnt out or managed out

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
