Pros

Development team is great, nice, friendly, helpful. Access to all environments, very automated nearly stress free deployments.

Cons

Work life balance non existent, and most likely the more you work, the less well you do. Team is so good, it's difficult to even be in the top 50%, and if you aren't, it's not a very welcoming feeling (totally stupid, but that is the culture)

Pros

Really smart and fun people, challenging problems to be solved, lot of tools that make everyday tasks easier. Lot of education possibilities. Many different offices and projects around the world.

Cons

Sometimes decisions are not performed as fast, which can block you. Also do not expect to develop full time as a developer - lots of other work too.
