Pros
Good vacation time, beer on friday's in the summer, open seating arrangement, no blocks on the internet.
Cons
Everything else: Terrible Pay. The organization preaches that stock options are given to compensate for bad pay, but options have 5 year vesting period, and analysts get 50 options/year. Once they vest, you need to deposit the cost of the option for 6 months before you can sell - if the stock price goes down in that time period, that's your loss. There is no room for growth, they constantly hire people from other companies to fill promotions. Weekend work is expected in most departments. All internal systems are terrible. Internet doesn't work properly, infrastructure is slow and unreliable.
