Pros

Free coffee, free bun and free anti-virus, great to install on your mother-in-law's PC as it will for sure annoy her everytime she actually tries to use the computer.

Cons

Working for Sophos or selling your soul to the devil? An easy question, unless you appreciate free buns, endless meetings and no career progression. Solid technical advice is ignored and critical enterprise applications are often developed by hobbyist programmers in their free time, however, you are still supposed to support these duck tape applications. Relatively simple software services are often hugely complex as layer upon layer of complexity has been added over the years witch each layer having a dependency on pretty much every other layer.

Pros

- challenging technical tasks - great office location in downtown Vancouver, close to everything - openness - I trust my manager

Cons

it's a big company with many locations and HQ in the UK -- the communication flow and coordination of effort could be challenging, but this shouldn't be surprising.
