Pros

Free lunch and no premium for insurance.

Cons

1) Clique, be careful if you are part of one of the cliques. You can be forgotten or, worst, pushed out. 2) Unlimited vacation that will not let you use or, worse, ask you to cancel after approval. 3) Lack of management experience. Most manger has zero skills to support their team. 5) Lack of transparency on promotion and hiring practices. Most people join with a big promotion. So if you don't get a promotion, you are already screwed. 4) You are expected to work long hours, weekends, and holidays. However, this is not the same for your manager 5) Your manager will lie straight to your face, so always be careful and don't even bother to go HR. They are not there to help you. 6) One percent 401k match .... The list can go on and on
