Pros

Compensation and benefits are decent.

Cons

There are too many silos and lack of communication between teams while at the same time keeping way to many meetings that are useless. It is hard to make changes and people are not open to listen to new ideas. Lots of internal politics and unhealthy competition between teams and locations. In many cases this yields duplicated solutions and efforts.

Great design team. Learn a lot in the project. Great resources for self motivated technical improvement.

Big wave of talented engineers leaving in some critical departments. CEO lacks responsibility on the company development. CEO and CFO have been selling their stocks a lot every year.
