Pros

Very enjoyable place to work. Extremely flexible with personal/work life balance. The option of working from home is available to virtually all employees on a day-to-day basis (only really need to come into the office as a means of maintaining social ties to colleagues). Great leadership, and the company will be at the leading edge of IT developments for many years.

Cons

Sometimes there are differences in the way business is done in different Global regions. This will exist with any globalized company, but for me, it's probably the most frustrating part of my job.
