Pros

If you need time away from work, you can take it

Cons

There is an utter lack of foresight; everything always seems to be procrastination and then hurry up and wait, or shoot the messenger when something goes wrong. On so many occasions I can't count them all, we were presented with a problem, offered a solution, a shortcut was sought by management, then they ignored our warnings of the costs of said shortcut, and then complained to us that our implementation of said shortcut encountered problems (e.g.: the ones we warned about)

Pros

Lot of contribution from everyone to the main work at all levels. Great office atmosphere. Flexibility for the kind of work you want to do. Great support from management. If you are good to people, they are good to you.

Cons

A little relaxed work scene at a few times in the office. Compensation package, relatively speaking, is not the best.
