Pros
Under Riccitiello, each studio within EA is gaining more independence, giving us more creative freedom, while the benefits of working for a corporate giant (benefits, marketing power, etc) remain. Beyond that, it's studio dependent. Don't necessarily assume a valid gripe from one employee is a corporate-wide problem.
Cons
It's still the games industry. The hours can be longer and the pay is usually less. If gaming is not something you love, you'll be happier elsewhere.
