Pros

Smart, hardworking employees. Half day Fridays in the summer if you can take them

Cons

Benefits are competitive, not great. While I expect work to have its busy times, employees constantly run at over capacity and no concept of work/life balance. Promotions based on who has a high visibility role and not necessarily hard work.
