High focus on achievement Meritocracy seems to be universal High expectations and high opportunity to succeed

Pros

Work with exceptionally smart people, you get out of it what you put into it. It is radically transparent, which some interpret as "tattling" but it breaks down your illusions about yourself and the self awareness is valuable. Atmosphere was energizing, Had a successful run.

Cons

Hard to get a decision made as things are debated for too long. Can be frustrating as an experienced hire who is used to a very different organizational structure and culture.
