      Pros

      - Great people - techstack - work equipment

      Cons

      - lack information about career progression (e.g. future prospects, performance affecting salary increase) - Changes takes months/years to implement (expected for large company, but can be deal-breaker for some ppl). - lack of choice with way you work (e.g. need to use same tools as everyone). - Most time is spent on setting you env to do what you have planned.
