Pros

Fun coworkers, good people. Surprisingly good benefits.

Cons

Responsibilities are not split fairly, some people are worked to the bone and others barely work at all, from every department. Pay is low. There are no jobs to move up to. The once-a-year "performance-based" raise is a joke. It's better now than it used to be but that isn't saying much.
