Pros

Relatively flat company hierarchy. No micro-management. Aggressive deadlines keep you on your toes. You are not a drop in the ocean, ability to make impact even as a fresh guy.

Cons

The same aggressive culture can lead to burn-out/over-burdening the employee. Lack of a managed, structured learning process can be daunting for many. Interaction with cross-continent teams would translate to working at nights.

Pros

The product security organization has a very ideal work-life balance. The culture is strong on ownership and trust. There is a good sense of pride and collaboration across teams with low level of politics and high sense of "the project is the boss". Compensation is good for the roles. Merit increases and promotions are mostly transparent, but can vary from manager to manager.

Cons

Leadership direction can be whiplash at some times. Some initiatives feel directionless, while others feel misguided. Leadership does respond to push back and listens to employees though, but it often feels like managing up.
