Pros

Good pay for part-time employees.

Cons

The company terminated our campaign because of bad management not due to our performance. Which, actually exceeded their expectations. They rewarded us with one hour of time to pack up our things and mentioned that it wasn't personal, "this kind of thing happens all the time" (Warning)

Pros

Great company culture; very relaxed, great co-workers, work from home, and you get to pick most of the hours. Additionally, since you're working as a consultant you get to learn a bunch of different stuff so you wont get bored. The pay is really what you make of it. Since it's a commission based model, if you're very dedicated you can make quite a bit of money. If you take the casual route like I did you still make a really comfortable salary. Despite working on my own for most of the time, if I ran into any trouble you could just find out if anyone on the team knows the technology you're working with to ask for some help, or even send out a mass email to the team. You're essentially working as a contractor without the hassle of finding clients or dealing with legal stuff. It's good experience if you're coming out of college like I did. You get a taste of what it's like to work with a smallish software company mixed with a corporate atmosphere which comes with the clients.

Cons

In my experience, I didn't really have much leadership; however, I thrive in those kind of environments. If you need someone guiding you a lot you might not be able to handle it. Everything I learned was essentially learned on my own(however, there are tons of experts on the team and you can always ask for help).
