Pros

Company is highly respected in the industry, pay is decent, some really great team members

Cons

Arrogant management, lack of formal mentoring program or career path development (truly ironic for a company that touts "people are our greatest asset"), benefits are below average for the industry, no equity in salary structure, bureaucracy and corporate politics rule
