Pros

- Work low hours, easy to be a rockstar here - You can have a say in some design choices - Discount on clothes, looking fresh - Good for a family man to settle down somewhere

Cons

- Too many priorities - Nothing new is being done, a lot of catch up work to the rest of the industry - Sometimes feels more like DevOps then Engineering - Bonus changed to yearly — end of year risk of not getting your bonus increased (your performance, company performance, and if you're still around to get it)
