Pros

Positive career growth. Ability to work across departments and gain experience in a variety of areas. Relaxed, casual atmosphere; not stuffy.

Cons

Lost sight of customer in midst of taking company public (or in attempt to become acquired). Management sometimes unwilling to own up to product shortfalls).
