Pros

Good environment with plenty of snacks and coffee

Cons

No direction, very confusing... Many people have no idea what they should work on. The motto is "just get it done" with zero direction. EOY performance review process is a joke. There is no correlation between your performance review and bonus payout. Bonuses are set prior to reviewing performance reviews...just strange. The theme is, work your butt off but unfortunately return on investment is very low.
