Pros

Excellent Benefits. Employees are well taken care of. Opportunity to work with very smart people. company is growing used to flexible work culture offering good work life balance. Lot of good training offered after hours.

Cons

Pay slightly under market rate. company very slow to adopt new technology you might even get the chance to work on FORTRAN. Lifers tend to get pushed up fast. Quality of upper management questionable. Company has a retention plan, but upper management often has no clue on how to retain talent. Limited growth opportunity if you are looking for a career this is not the place.
