Pros

good stepping stone for a future career if you are interested in marketing or sales, good work-life balance.

Cons

slow development, limited opportunities, averse to adopting best practices from outside the company, risk slipping in to a routine & administrative mode due to slow and top-down decision making thereby killing the challenge and entrepreneurial spirit, got to fit a single distinct personality pattern ('proctoid') to be recognized thereby limiting diversity.

Pros

Many intelligent people who are experts in their fields who are willing to help and provide advice (if they have time). Decent benefits and pay.

Cons

I mentioned time because many people are stretched and overworked. Work life balance is pretty bad and shows no signs of improvement. A lot of this can be attributed to near useless management. Every project is treated as absolute maximum priority but can still be dropped at a moment's notice. Work processes are horribly cumbersome and slow. Even small changes require many approvals but there are endless demands to "move faster".
