Pros

Best series of managers I've ever worked for. Genuinely wanted to bring out the best in employees. When I met Ray, I found he was a great person as well.

Cons

Potential long hours, must have tough skin, an ego that does not impede, and/or ability to handle constructive criticism.

Pros

Politics are kept to a minimum Free breakfast, lunch, dinner Free health benefits Generous bonuses

Cons

Although politics is kept to a minimum, it still does happen. "Seniority" is sometimes judged by time at the company and not knowledge. The principles is often used in to the wrong way and often against you.
