Pros

Addgene is truly a special place. I work alongside incredibly thoughtful, intentional, smart colleagues that value each other's experience and work. You are able to showcase and present your work to the company, and it is celebrated. You are given room to do your best work with no micromanagement. This is a "radically flexible" work environment that allows you to get your work done in the time that best suits you. They value employees and provide 100% health care to not only employees, but their partners and dependents. Great time off, and plenty of ways to engage with your colleagues in fun, creative ways (apple picking, bake-offs, dance competitions, book clubs, etc).

Cons

Honestly, I cannot think of any.
