Pros

Employee culture is very collaborative and positive

Cons

Base pay and benefits are severely lacking, now that pension plan is gone; many side "perks" (e.g., parental leave, etc.) are being improved, but the base salary and total compensation is significantly lacking until one reaches 10+ years of experience. The company also values tenure (even for poor performance) over high-performing individuals. Early engineers (> 7 yr) are leaving for other jobs, and the company is having a very tough time of retaining them.
