Pros
Culturally, it's hard to find a cooler place to work than the Fool. The people are very friendly, the policies are very employee friendly, and the compensation is good. Financially, Motley Fool is growing at solid double-digit growth rates and is very sound. Senior management continues to make smart decisions about how to drive the business.
Cons
I'm not sure if there are many downsides of working at the Fool. The company is very focused on certain key initiatives, so perhaps one possible downside is that there isn't as wide-ranging an assortment of project work that you might think there would be. The only other thing is that it's a very flat organization, so people coming to the Fool from bigger companies with many layers of management might be both pleasantly surprised at the flatness of the org chart, but equally confused about how they themselves can advance. Other than that, it's a tough place to beat.
