Pros

Brilliant benefits and informal working space for collaboration with colleagues who are in the same office. Great hybrid working options.

Cons

Beware the managers that come in as a clique of people. An attempted take over happened while I was there and I ended up being collateral damage for an insecure manager who wanted to assert their power.
