Pros

Decent benefits, onsite restaurant, depending on role, some work from home opportunities,

Cons

High performers get pigeonholed, and taken advantage of. Tenured employees not expected to develop technology skills, leaving others to pick up slack. Lack diversity in leadership. Nepotism prevents qualified employees to advance. Very cliquish, bad behaviors and inappropriate conversations tolerated.

Pros

Culture is amazing; decisions are made with the employees in mind. It may mot always be a great result, but they are trying to run a company and be profitable!

Cons

Afraid of change. Too many people have been there for two long, there's a lot of complacency and apathy.
