Pros

Great people and a great office environment to work in (e.g. modern, bright, and a Starbucks in the building lobby)!

Cons

Numbers, numbers, and more numbers... Yes, a business needs to be focused on the bottom line, but not at the expense of creativity and especially not to drive its employees crazy with process, reporting, and constant analyses of the process and reporting...

Pros

Very good benefits and the pay can be excellent as well. Product lines are very good. Somehow making money despite themselves.

Cons

Rewards and success are really based on your ability to form good relationships. Lots of opportunities if you form good relationships. Very political, watch your back.

Too many and too much local politics. Only old times knows how to play the pleasing game.
