Pros

The company was founded on the principle that in order to succeed you need to treat your co-workers as well as your customers. This had led to industry leading salaries, benefits and a fabulous place to work.

Cons

As any company that grows quickly you must try harder to make your employees feel like more than a number. Not an easy task but they are doing a great job!

Pros

401k matching (dollar-for-dollar up to 9%); very affordable health insurance with great network coverage

Cons

The legendary culture and brand are gone forever (thanks a lot, Elliott). It's just a regular giant company now -- no better, no worse.
