Pros

Reasonable compensation. Perhaps in the 80% percentile.

Cons

The company is located in the backwater of Illinois and can't attract much talents. They pay people quite well but other benefits such as health insurance and vacation days etc are crappy. Work-life balance doesn't exist and they work people to the ground. Culture is quite toxic. No growth opportunity
