Pros

Flexible work arrangements, great promotional opportunities, facilities close to 101, and great salary in comparison to similar to positions w. other companies.

Cons

promoting fast isn't always a good thing here. Internal promotions do not always get paid the same as an external hire. Promotion salary increased is capped at a small percentage - exceptions are required for anything above the usual percentage.
