Pros

Some positions are hybrid allowing for onsite/offsite combination. Everyone I have met has tried to help me, none have tried to judge or critsize me. The on-boarding process was easy and completely painless. I had assigned training along with a buddy to help me through everything. Pay is in-line with industry for positions. Diversity and differences are celebrated. Company is completely transparent from line workers to CEO.

Cons

I haven't found one yet.
