Pros

Very relaxed environment with great people/culture/values. Hard to get fired (rarely do people get fired because of poor performance). Many opportunities for technical & professional growth.

Cons

Lower than industry compensation. Not clear why certain people are promoted while the pace of career advancement is slow and it seems like there is a waiting line for every position. Most promotions require you to move and if you want to move into the upper echelons in the company you have to move quite a bit.
