Pros

A love of music, laid back, casual atmosphere. Work/life balance is generally very good, but could be even better with improved project planning. Benefits are good, lots of time off.

Cons

People who have been here for 10 years or more are routinely at odds with folks who have worked in other businesses recently and have more organizational, strategic, and process experience. Morale is an issue, there's an undercurrent of eye-rolling and some political struggles.
