Pros

Free food, good work-life balance. Regular office parties, lots of free booze :). Firm seems to spend money like crazy, at the slightest excuse. Pity that they dont cut down on unncessary parties and so on, and increase employee pay a bit more. Work culture is good, and mostly your superiors are really open and accessible to you, no matter how low down the rung you are.

Cons

Difficult to grow as its such a huge organization. Not much learning happens, unless you spend a lot of time at the firm and proactively try to learn stuff. Job as such wont teach you much. Sad to say this, but the image of this company is overhyped outside. Most of the time you are actually doing backend, boring and monotomous jobs (with the possible exception of some of the sales guys).

Pros

Great building, competitive salary, excellent benefits package, multi-cultural environment. If you are fresh from college, have no work experience, or would like to find someone to date, an excellent place to work! Unlikely to get fired for any reason. Free food. Really high turnover, so you may get a sales job even if you were a programmer.

Cons

Ethically void. A/C and Heating are unstable. If your boss is harassing you, and you tell their boss and HR, YOU will be written up (but still given a bonus). Management is incompetent (promotions based on the ability to brown nose, not actual ability to do/learn/improve anything aside from staying in same position for 8 years).
