Pros

The breadth of opportunities is almost unparalleled in corporate world. Also, it's a great place to do interesting work in a challenging environment.

Cons

One of the downsides is the size of the company limits the pace of upward mobility. Also, there is often too much focus on the short term by middle management when senior management seems to preach long term.
