Pros

Great pay, excellent sign-in package. Unlimited PTO (a pro or a con depending on the person). Smart people. Lots of them. Yearly Hackathon is exciting and useful with many prototypes actually getting implemented. Workday lunches encourage collaboration and teamwork.

Cons

Middle management can't seem to stick to decisions. Very often we would start adding a feature, at management request, only to have management change their mind before or even after the feature was completed. Bad for productivity, bad for morale, bad for the bottom line. Upper and middle management hiring, promotion and layoffs are based way too much on cronyism.
