Pros

Worldwide coverage They really care in the small things for keeping happy employees, like always coffee, nice kitchens, clean and nice offices with hot swap laptop. Security always first and attention to detail. Really good work life balance

Cons

Values differ from the theory to the real life. Interviews are long, lasting 4 hours the longest one The security clearance they do is a Joke. They third party it and the company who does is is completely informal and provides inacurate information. In datacenter roles, Because of security you will not know your workplace till the last minute (24hs before) so once you are hired you should find some hotel or airbnb in a center area untill you know where will be your work place not leading you to choose a proper place near the office. It cost me 2.5hours a day one way. Discrimination found in the company, sadly.
