Pros

Great place to grow and learn skills you might not get the chance to explore elsewhere. Decent pay and benefits for the valley. The company has a vision and a map for the course it wants to take. Execs are approachable and engaged in the day-to-day. People work both hard and smart. Very few prima donnas.

Cons

No real track for advancement - right place, right time seems to be the standard. It's no longer a start-up but not quite a full-fledged company, makes for growing pains and uncertainty.
