Pros

Depends on departments and people you worked with, there’re some awesome people in the company.

Cons

Always reconstructing or re-organization. Well, let’s get it straightforward, always laying off employees… no future plans, low efficiency, slate definitely maybe looks cooler from outside to the general public, but if you work for the company good luck with that

Pros

Enthusiastic colleagues, a great idea that has charmed the world, lots of interest and name recognition, scrappy environment and flat structure

Cons

Looks cooler from the outside. Chaotic inside; some is pace, some is individual managers who are great contributors on their own but not good at leading or supporting their reports. Lots of focus shifts and responsibility without authority. A bit of a cult around Brand. Great work, but everything else comes second. Hard to get buy-in and sign off on critical mid- to long-term projects that aren't brand. Lack of focus.
