Pros

Nice office, I guess. Nothing else

Cons

Waste of my time, took me through several rounds of interviews just to be given some lowball offer that I rejected. Be transparent with candidates about their pay and don't waste their times!

Pros

Great office, people, opportunities to grow

Cons

Need shift in technology, focus on core issues than just simply making a few UI-focused application changes. Data is the center of everything and the organization needs a 360-degree shift in their focus on data.
