Pros

- The compensation package is okay. - The free food is decent. - The benefits are above and beyond. - Lots of name recognition.

Cons

- Social Justice work is included in your performance review. Some engineers spend up to 50% of their time working on diversity and inclusion. So they've essentially become social workers. - Various orgs in the company have engaged in what can only be described as struggle sessions. Where employees admit that they are racist, sexist, and homophobic during meetings. - An internal mailing list tracks micro-aggressions committed each week. Everyone is walking on egg shells. - Managers have admitted to giving bad references to employees that "make diversity and inclusion difficult." Which is not a very good precedent considering what a subjective criteria that is for wrecking someone's career.

Terrible for Sales

Pros

Free Food, cool bikes, co-workers were great.

Cons

Management gets away with a lot of abusive behavior. Cloud teams are extremely disorganized. Promotions and opportunity is all political. The environment is toxic for someone looking to make a career in Sales. The pay structure was terrible. No commission, just this sharing pool based on multiple factors, so you are not rewarded for good performance.
