Pros

it's a paycheck, but you'll work hard to get it. Do you like working 6 or 7 days a week? It's better than digging ditches.

Cons

Minimal benefits, no stock options or ESPP. There is no life - work balance. There's a difference in being owned by private venture capitalists and a "private company". And it's not a good difference. Beware. Management rules by fear and seems to think employees re expendable commodities. The attrition rate at the company is unbelievable.
