Pros

Flexible hours, great benefits. Lot of opportunities inside the company to move. In general very respectful work environment.

Cons

Things get done very slow. They still 1980 and 90s laptops and monitors :( . Too distributed and it is very hard to work there if you come from a past paced environment.
