Pros

Certain positions are extremely flexible (allow working from home, flex-time, etc). Decent amount of PTO and paid Holidays. Decent benefit package. Ranked highly for non-discriminatory practices. Ranked highly for working mothers. Tuition reimbursement is available. Internal training and networking opportunities are plentiful. Participation in community share agriculture.

Cons

As great as the option to be flexible sounds, there are still many cases where the work/life balance is horrible. This is largely due to open positions rarely getting back-filled and simply shuffling work to another employee on the team. Late nights are the norm.

Pros

When a project goes according to plan you can work with some great people and make decent money.

Cons

Bad behavior is tolerated when you have a weak team member. They are allowed to remain on payroll, even if they do not effectively contribute. The burden is often placed on the team members willing to pick up the slack. Promotions are not given to the most qualified. They are randomly assigned. There are some horrible scoring directors as a result.
