Pros

Successful global leader. Opportunity to learn in a complex industry. Good salaries and bonuses. Friendly, positive staff. Energetic work environment.

Cons

New York based/biased with a focus on growth through standardization and automation. If you're located beyond the traditional northeast home office the the end-game for this company may be to make your job redundant as quickly as possible. There is a longstanding goal to absorb San Francisco functions over to New York. Senior New York management will schedule standing meetings with SF staff at 6AM PT (rather than say, 9AM PT) to remind you that they can.
