Pros

9/80 schedule but it won't be pleasant experience

Cons

Engineering talent is severely lacking. HR/recruiting flat out stinks. Don't let thetechnology fool you, they're mainly recycling the work of pass smarter engineers and living off their creations. Many of them and HR are flat out useless AND not particularly "nice" people you'd want to be stuck in the office with 9/80 ...as if you job applicants don't already notice.
