Pros

The people here are just the best. You work with people who really, really, _really_ care about their jobs and doing them well. Also, the PTO mechanism is quite flexible, none of this "as much as you like" stuff, you get 3 weeks to start and working more than 40 hours pays into that bank, work less and it gets taken out. Very flexible.

Cons

Pay is a little lean, but that's really about it.
