Pros

Wicked smart people Stable Personal offices, with good equipment Nice campus, good expected company growth. Ability to weather tough economic storms. Advanced use of programming languages to solve difficult problems Good atmosphere Flexible with core hours Great coworkers, some of the brightest around, and very polite/respectful.

Cons

To ensure quality, getting code into the final product is a long and painful process. This leads to great, quality, low-bug products, but slows down programmers. It's a necessary pain for the end result, just be aware that slow downs in development exist and can't be avoided. Telecommuting policy is lagging behind where modern software companies tend to be.

Pros

Great work environment - people are in general collaborative and helpful. Freedom to work on different projects. Excellent work/life balance. Competitive pay. Management genuinely concerned about the well-being of employees.

Cons

The company is losing some of its creative edge and becoming more and more process oriented. No sense of urgency with respect to delivering features - "it gets done when it gets done" attitude.
