      Pros

      Great benefits, salary, hours, flexibilty. A laissez faire style of management, allowing for decision making, learning and individual sense of purpose. Very easy going and informal.

      Cons

      Great lack of knowledge sharing (documentation) resulting in delaying business continuity and difficulty in getting fellow employees to discuss/act/think outside their own box.

      Pros

      Great friendly place to work. Advancement opportunities available. Great benefits. A lot of extras. The company takes care of you. Great training for the positions.

      Cons

      Changes within the company. There is not much bad to say about the company. Software programmer needs to make software more stable.
