Pros

Technically rewarding, good pay and benefits

Cons

Very political, no appreciation for good work, quick-to-complain mentality, egoistic and directionless management, no efforts to retain good talent, vacation policy favors only the "buddies-with-boss" employees, lately not enough RSUs, slow promotion cycles, indirect expectation to work late hours/weekends all thru the year. Caution for new employees - make sure you research about the group and the immediate manager before joining. Certain groups have a track record of eccentric managers harassing people eventually leading to massive exodus.
