Pros

- Decent work-life balance - Good mid-level management

Cons

- Low pay - Virtually no career advancement - Poor top leadership Expanding corporate bloat and diminishing technical footprint will end one way, sadly. It's owned by a private equity firm and they typically have one goal, short term profit at the expense of a company and it's employees.
