Pros

Work/Life Balance (Dependent upon the group but I lucked out the last 2 years there) Career development opportunities (You have to chase it - it won't be handed to you)

Cons

Lay-Offs rampant for the past few years making it an uncertain/stressful environment Internal mobility is very challenging Bonus is VERY arbitrary and tends to be low so it's hard to determine how much you will get. Negotiate high salary at hiring There are concerning levels of misogony and bias towards women of color that will impact you especially as you move up.

Pros

Great benefits and work/life balance if you're on the right team.

Cons

Having a bad manager dictates everything about your job. You will see no upward mobility or compensation improvement if you are under a poor manager.
