great pay, leading edge tech, great if you don't might fighting as the underdog. Lot's of liberal-minded policies - LGBQ-friendly, weirdo-friendly

Flexible Work Hours and Good Working Culture

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Flexible hours working, good working culture with emphasis on respect for people. Good work ambient Pay is average to high.

Cons

It depends on which department, in product development engineering you can be overloaded seasonably especially when during the initial product bring-up to initial production. But when the product is in production mature stage, normal work can be experience, just maintaining the operations flow and making sure to resolve any intermittent issues.
