Inconsistent benefits across the company

Pros

Very social work environment International travel Nice on-site benefits (multiple restaurants and places to go to relax or work)

Cons

Wildly inconsistent benefits between people at the same IC or Management level across different parts of the company. Operations functions undervalued, even if the basic job function is the same. Engineers still seen as the top brass from a comp perspective. Felt like promotions were suppressed.... very very hard to climb once you get in, so it's best to negotiate your level before joining so you don't get stuck. Culture of openness and ability to question leadership is NOT shared across the company, even though Senior execs at the company say you should do it.

Pros

Smart people who were chosen to be good to work with and empathic of others. Important work. Huge scope. Solid mentorship. Enormous self direction. Continuous opportunity fountain. Literally the best large company I can imagine working for, and I came from a mid-senior role at Google that wasn't shabby.

Cons

Took a year and a half to learn to play defense on my work life balance; there's a spectrum of teams, and while some offer fantastic balance, others just don't. (The lesson was that they let you pick your own team, and that's something you can select for.)
