Pros

Core values and focus is centered around people- from the impressive decisions that are made on behalf of the residents to the individualistic approach towards associates' career paths. The company- despite impressive growth- stays fresh, innovative and continously evolving. Most importantly, however, it still has a "family" feel. The culture remains strong, vibrant, fun and exciting.

Cons

Nothing that you wouldn't find in any large workplace. Every company is going to have its share of negativity, different leadership styles (some more effective than others), inconsistencies etc. But I'll keep any of the "cons" around in order to enjoy all the pros.
