Pros
great benefits: food, massages, pets, technology, shuttles to work, cool discounts, collaborative culture. depending on the group, work lifestyle balance may differ. jobs in corporate finance are generally cyclical and predictable with the planning cycle. offices all over the world and developing markets, with new products so creates lots of opportunity, but difficult to navigate.
Cons
Uncertain career progression and development. Promotion processes can be opaque. In the end this is still an engineering company. Next comes sales...and everyone else is expendable. 20% time only applies to engineers. Culture progressively changing to be more corporate. Not easy to move or rotate internally.
