Pros

Free coffee? They also have annual picnics sometimes.

Cons

Not sure if this applies to all verticals in the company but my vertical had some of the most underdeveloped managers I've ever worked with. It felt like I was being managed by very talented students that blew up on people as soon as things didn't go their way. It's no wonder churn rates are through the roof. You are not set up to succeed in this company - there is no mentorship. It's more like you come in as if you were starting your own consulting company. All my coworkers seemed oppressed but the interesting thing was that they saw it as normal. They were always worried about disappointing management more than they wanted to do good work. There's unfortunately no better way to say it - it felt a bit like a cult and if you lasted long enough to get to the top, you could reap the rewards of having a following yourself. Yikes.
