Pros
Great folks on a personal level. Even most upper managment. Fun innovative products with amazing stories of life saving events that you feel like you helped out with. People, Product, Process. Freedom to take on as much responsibility as you can, no matter what your position.
Cons
Managerial failures all over. You will not be considered for a promotion. Meetings about meetings to prepare for meetings about future meetings. Finance has no idea what they are doing. Red tape. Red tape. Oh, and more red tape. Meetings to discuss red tape. Getting by red tape in order to call meetings to discuss the red tape you just had to get by. Marketing meetings to determine what color 'red' the red tape will really be this quarter. Financial meetings to figure out the material costs of the red tape. With no follow through on how much we just transfered the red tape for. micromanagement. NO room for movement in this company, unless you are in with someone high up. Freedom to take on as much responsibility as you can, no matter what your position, without compensations.
