Pros

flexible working hours, laid back environment, always something new to learn, trust from the management part, in my case, it was a great opportunity to change my area of expertise form IT support to community management, which turned out to be something I love to do

Cons

not working in the HQ office can sometimes lead to lack of information needed for your day to day activities, and the difference of timezone can sometimes affect your work

Pros

Personally I've had some excellent mid-level managers, I've learned loads and it's never boring. Money can be decent, but you sell your soul.

Cons

Lots of talk of everyone's opinion being important, but simply not the case. Senior executives are simply in this to earn fast money, and will destroy anyone in their way. The "model" is the end-all-and-be-all. Very high turn-over of staff, especially in sales. If the execs thought the company would be around long term they wouldn't keep flogging shares. Local staff consistently over-looked in favour of staff from the US HQ getting promotions.
