Pros

* People are generally nice and experienced * Great benefits and stocks * Generally easy going performance review cycles * Upper management seem to want to listen, but don't do much or have the power to change things * Career development is good but depends on the team

Cons

* All the good folks who actually want to innovate/build have either joined Cash or left the company. Everyone else is complacent * Little sense of ownership and too much bureaucracy making it hard to make an impact * Quality of Project/product management org is poor
