Pros

The CEO is a very down to earth, reasonable person. The Wed breakfast and Friday cookies are a bonus. Most employees are good people.

Cons

Core Values aren't followed. Bureaucracy inhibits a lot of common sense decisions. Immediate management is non-existent when needed. There are very few opportunities for career growth. If you're not in Development, you're a second class citizen. Lifers are allowed to perform sub-par work while competent employees are forced to pick up all the slack.
