Pros

The company culture can be a positive aspect if you are young and single. Company paid happy hours and company outings. Health benefits are pretty good and well priced. Good people. Get to travel, can be good when you're not forced to do it at least 50% of the time.

Cons

Underpaid compared to their competition. Inexperienced management...company is growing quickly and management has no idea how to handle it. Most managers dont actually have management experience. So called "promotions" are not merit based. Get friendly with management and tell them they are great and you'll get a "promotion" where they'll cut your pay and give you more work. Constantly changing bonus structure with astronomical goals. False promises on bonuses...you might get it and then lose it. Bonuses are very small compared to competiton. No company cards for travel expenses. Pay out of pocket and then wait got reimbursed. HR is there for show, nothing ever gets handled the way it should. No growth potential at this point. If you started 5 or 6 years ago you could move up but not now. 17 year old international company with an unorganized startup feel to it. CEO said it best, "if you are here to make money the you are at the wrong place."
