Pros

Plenty of room for professional growth. There is great effort to retain talent

Pros

There are many self-driven workers who are working hard to reach their target. Target is always high and tough to reach but it is good if you would like to growth fast.

Cons

Company is getting bigger, organization is getting bigger, so there are some sectionalism. Sometimes we need to take long time to get authorization from several managers across the department.
