Pros

There is always something interesting to work on and you can create your own opportunities. It is easy to work with other employees in different job areas and locations. If you have a good idea and you can sell the idea to management you can go ahead with the project.

Cons

Company does not make money! Stock options are worthless. 401K match is sub-standard. Senior Management is not competent. All the IT systems are totally inadequate - its VERY FRUSTRATING when email goes down a few times a year for no apparent reason!

Pros

Very exciting work, so much so I work 20hours a day. No distractions from silly/fun events. Food is meh so I can focus on work. Coffee is also very mid, not good, not bad but mid.

Cons

Not enough work, I only work 20 hour a day, I still have 4 hours to sleep. And on the weekends, we still have 3 hour leisure time. We still accept People who gets hired expecting to work only a measly 80 hour week.
