Pros

It is definitely a great company to work for. Despite it's size it remains an engineer driven company with hugely talented people that are driven by a wish to excel. Coupled with one of the best tech culture and tools I have seen, it is a great company to learn and grow.

Cons

Your growth and learning hugely depends on which team your work for. The work can range from highly innovative to hugely monotonous. Make sure you choose wisely. The pace of work can be frenetic but that can be a high for some.
