Pros

The brand, an element of prestige, perks, innovation.

Cons

Inconsistent treatment of employees based on role, location, org. A culture of self preservation, fear, and employees as cogs in the wheel- with constant levers pulled to drive employees away and avoid paying severance or unemployment. Constructive dismissal.
