Pros

* Vertical promotion opportunities are endless, you can stay in the company forever. * Fairly good yearly bonus. * Good work-life balance.

Cons

* The salary is lower than market. * The bonuses are aimed for long term benefit. i.e. stock bonuses will be vested over the 4 year period. Meaning they are incentivizing you to stay longer in the company instead of giving you immediate benefit. * Organizational structure is all about competition. * Culture is based on pseudo values, not genuine ones.
