Pros

The culture in the office is fantastic. The management is welcoming and understanding. The CEO will sit down and have lunch with you and ask your candid opinions. They are incredibly flexible with your work schedule, allowing you to work from home at any employment level. The shuttle to the Billerica office is also a life-saver for anyone who wants to live in the city as opposed to the suburbs. Additionally, the company is growing so rapidly that there is plenty of room for upward movement.

Cons

The company is growing so quickly that they are continuously working out the kinks. This also means that your job description and responsibilities may change with time.
