      Pros

      - Amazing scale if you care about that - Decent comp (not amazing) - The core of the business isn't as societally problematic as some other big tech - Pretty good resume value - Customer obsession is a good thing and not just a buzzword

      Cons

      - Monopolistic - Culture and leadership issues - Bureaucracy - Will do things like ask you to assume the responsibilities of the next level up, verbally saying this will get you an actual level increase in ~6 months, then not follow through

      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.
