Pros

Everyone is great at their job, and extremely motivated to produce the best possible product. It's easy to get to know people at every level of the company.

Cons

It's an older workforce. As a younger person, it's sometimes hard to relate to folks who have been working for 30 years already. On the other hand, they give great advice!
