Pros

I chose to work for a company that fit my values, perspectives, responsibilities, and overall development culture of both my own private business ventures, but also the experiences of other employers. The '10 ways' are certainly these. They aren't just some value system that is hung on a wall and forgotten. They are lived and breathed each day, in every way possible.

Cons

Honestly, I've been working for EQR for a while, and can't think of anything, other than there aren't many properties on the INTERIOR/Middle of the US, as they own most large growing markets in metro's near coasts!
