Pros

Great immediate team and first line management

Cons

Upper management doesn't care about people - you are just a number Even if you are profitable, you may not get a decent bonus or raise. Little to no room to grow, they hire outside resources for management jobs. Outsourcing is an issue, have an issue, wait until 2am for them to respond.
