Pros

Work-Life Balance exceeds that of any employer I have previously worked for Pay is Competitive The people are all world-class. Seriously, they all love what they do and are good at it. Feedback channels exist all the way from the front lines to upper-level execs. Upper Management is approachable and engaged. They take time to communicate regularly with the whole company to review results, align goals, and address challenges.

Cons

Because everyone is executing at such a high level, the challenges that do exist are often complex and have a poorly-defined (if at all) path to resolution. If you enjoy solving high-complexity issues, this may be a "Pro". The never-ending pursuit of operational improvement means frequent and sometimes substantial changes to processes, procedures, systems, and even organizational structure. While undoubtedly well-intentioned, this can be frustrating for frontline employees who rely heavily on these resources to be successful, and may sometimes have the opposite of the desired effect because the frequency or scope of the changes create knowledge gaps, confusion, and/or inconsistency between different organizational units, leading to avoidable roadblocks or delays.

Pros

Days are never the same. Plenty of different opportunities that will need attention.

Cons

Company through it's many integrations doesn't take the time or expense to integrate legacy systems. Because of this, so much time is wasted in tracing a customer circuit or issue before action can be done on it. In addition, upper management only appears to be numbers based, at the expense of employees. Systems or processes that make sense get forced on teams before things are even close to being ready. This causes stress and more unproductive time with teams.
