Pros

- Managers tell you what needs to be done and why, giving you the freedom to decide how to achieve the goals. - Deadlines are reasonable and rarely require late nights or weekends. - Very little process getting in the way of coding. - No junior engineers, no slackers allowed. - Managers are very willing to fire employees who do not get their jobs done or who have bad attitude, so everyone is good at their job and easy to work with. - Base-pay is at least double what you're currently making (though there are no RSUs)

Cons

- It lacks some of the fun corporate secrets that Apple & Google have - The only thing that will grow is your salary. No real opportunity for a bigger/better title.
