Pros
Getting to work with some of the smartest, most creative and passionate people. Working on products that millions of people use everyday is also great. Overall, the company treats its employees quite well and the management hierarchy isn't too bad. Fairly stable company with several class leading products, however lots of opportunities to work on new stuff as well. Management encourages people to move within the company to try new roles.
Cons
Each division is run like a mini company so there are some inconsistencies across product groups. In many of the product groups, its not a meritocracy. Some managers hire friends, promote friends even though they are clearly incompetent for the new position.
