Pros

A few really great people Making a solid product that changes lives, good mission statement Easy to get promoted / make an impact because no one knows what they are doing so it is easy to stand out if you have some expertise or experience Good IT department Work/life balance

Cons

Extremely political - executives hate each other and hate their reporting structure. Culture is full of backstabbing and gossip. Executives / leadership are extreme micro managers. Absolutely no process / data used to make decisions. It's alarming. A lot of nepotism. Some of it harmless...some of it not. Rife with bias, discrimination from daily interactions to hiring to promotions.
