Pros

An overall culture of respect. Opportunities for advancement and every level of management is accessible. Benefits are fantastic 5% matched on 401k and then 5% uncapped on salary is contributed regardless of whether or not you contribute to 401k. Generous vacation days plus July week shutdown and Christmas week shutdown are huge perks.

Cons

The culture of rewarding “behaviors” as well as results can get abused when bias/favoritism exists unchecked. This is manager-specific and I can only speak to my role in field sales.
