Pros

Remote working is still possible

Cons

No job security, Q1 you are forced to enter "death note" goals for the year, and Q2, Q3 there is a check in, only "on track", or "need improve". Your manager can enter the note whatever he wants, and you will get piped at anytime. Q4 is the annual review, manager can write anything and put you on "not meet"

Pros

Great benefits, pays well, can work on some very interesting problems.

Cons

Work hours are from 10-7 and hardly anyone actually works that, so stuff can move at a snail pace. Getting help from central teams can be painful, especially if they're way off hours. Some of the culture can get a bit overwhelming too and you can end up feeling pretty lonely if you don't drink the koolaid.
