Pros

401K matching is better than any company I know Stable company

Cons

There is a large focus on attracting and retaining talent, but not enough training, growth opportunities, and responsibility are provided for the company to be a good place to start a career. Also, to move up in the company, you either need to be German or work in Germany.
