Pros

No dress code. Laxed environment. Awesome and friendly people. Regular events for R&R, bonding, and other celebrations are done.

Cons

Workload is imbalanced. Freeze hire for a long period (until now I suppose). CEO is childish; a good friend but not a good leader. Too much politics, drama, and bullying within people inside. The salary gap between rank and file and management people is way too wide. Many people are resigning and no move to hire replacements can be done due to freeze hire. Too many cockroaches in the office.
