Pros

Flexible schedule. Great benefits, including a wonderful 4013B contribution. Great mission and colleagues. Events are awesome.

Cons

Senior leadership is terrible. Cronyism is sickening and crippling to the culture. Lots of insecure managers who do not know how to lead. Too much bickering between teams. General feeling of negativity is pervasive. Limited career options. The most toxic environment I've ever encountered.
