Pros

Flexible work arrangements, generous paid time off, management doesn't breathe down your neck, people are very friendly, green company that cares about the environment and volunteering to give back to the community, employee recognition program that allows employees to reward others for a job well done, end of year performance is taken very seriously and leadership is willing to work with you to improve and take you to the next level

Cons

Salary isn't as competitive as others in the same field, software is a little bit out-dated and slow, very matrixed company so getting work done can take some time,
