Pros

Most people care about the company and the mission. Generally talented people to work with and oppotunity to move around the organization and learn.

Cons

Decisions are made at very high level on small things, and big things are not decided on. Higher level management tends to set goals but not strategies to acheive them, delegating that to the middle management, but then not empowering them to put the strategic plan into action.

Pros

You will not be bothered by people talking to you, benefits seem okay.

Cons

Don’t expect to be trained on anything. Management will expect you to figure things out on your own, request your own accesses and figure out what you need without any guidance. They’ll send people to you for questions on how to do stuff within your first couple days, not having taught you how to do those things.
