Pros

1) Execs are engaged and fully hands-on. This is a motivating factor. 2) Relaxed work environment and friendly co-workers are a plus. 3) Several company-sponsored events throughout the year, which make things lighter. 4) The company is small enough to allow you to wear multiple hats with significant autonomy. 5) Cool projects and technology formerly focused on Department of Defense customers, but now making strides in commercial markets.

Cons

Multiple, competing deadlines at any given time can translate to high stress; Fast-paced (sometimes a frenetic pace ) Some management gaps, but all attributable to growing pains.
