Pros

Challenging, lots of opportunities to get recognition for hard work and achievements, a chance to be part of growing a region and an organization, a very positive corporate culture that is driven from the top down, focus on leadership rather than micro-management, fantastic CEO and other role models in the executive management team, focus on teamwork and collaboration across the company, really inclusive team spirit and an emphasis of assuming that you do know what you're doing until you prove otherwise which is very empowering.

Cons

Working in a fast paced, 'start up' type environment isn't for everyone. People that rely heavily on established processes or those that cant think outside the box in order to get the job done would potentially feel uncomfortable.

Pros

fairly lax with lots of time to do things

Cons

many. Former CEO ran things poorly and took in managers who brought along their problems and animosities with them. Not only that, they were allowed to invite their friends to come and join too, many of them owing their jobs to someone creating a bro culture. Even though top mgmt changed since the sale, its many of these people still there to this day. Most of the systems were a black box, existing engineers were mostly uncooperative to keep their knowledge to themselves, the offshore engineers in one particular country were especially bad for this. I have seen major accomplishments achieved by someone, where so many others had failed, only to get fired soon after.
