Pros

Being a software development company, development cycles can be tough, but everyone takes responsibility, everyone helps everyone else, they care about each other, and care about the end results. Lots of potential for growth as an employee. There is movement across divisions, so someone from Support may move to Education, someone from Education may move to Implementation, etc.

Cons

Development cycles can be tough, so there can be a lot of pressure to perform and to meet deadlines.

Pros

Appears to be an innovative company from the outside. Lots of access to customers and research. Strong upper management push for new tech initiatives. New CEO might help. He just started.

Cons

There is a hierarchy of UX designers with titles that separate them in skills and respect in the org. I was not allowed to really contribute or engage and was actively silenced because of my title as Sr., not being a Lead or Principles UX designer. This is not a healthy or how UX works. However, this may have been the EXLynx team specifically. The product team holds disproportionate control over UX decisions, including managing UX staff directly. I found the environment hostile to UX professionals joining new. The UX org has 5 hierarchical tiers UX including UX management, which creates significant bottlenecks. I came in with 15 years of experience and after two months - I was unable to do my job because of the harassment from a fellow designer.
