Pros

The team I work on is very cohesive and an overall positive experience. When we get to do "agile" it works very well.

Cons

Working with other groups within the organization tends to be very cumbersome. Working together seems to be more of the exception than the rule. Performance reviews are all about how well you're known to the organization, not what you've contributed to your team or how well you work. Management doesn't seem all that receptive to problems brought up by the employees.

Pros

Benefits including profit sharing and bonuses are great. The breadth of this company provides a great opportunity to try out different career paths or boost your current one.

Cons

In my current role, I am working overtime more often than I'd like with recognition that seems to only go so far until it sizzles out. That may be tied to the size of the company itself, where promotions work in a "trickle down" manner.
