Pros

Generous vacation time form the start. Some roles offer flexibility to work remote. They definitely like to promoted from within when possible.

Cons

401k match is only 25% . Pretty low compared to most other companies. Health benefits are okay. Could be a little better.

We do strive to keep a smaller company feel and it is why we have many long term employees.
