Pros

I love my company. Great benefits. Great lifestyle. Great working environment with great staff. Salary is decent but stock options and 401k are elite class.Low turnover among employees.

Cons

Commuting to jobs can be bad sometimes. Its the nature of the work. You dont know where the next job will be. To get ahead you often have to relocate to where the next job is.
