Pros

opportunities to learn and take responsibility are abundant. you will be challenged here, but with respect for autonomy.

Cons

the core business is stagnating and under performing the salary is not as competitive as it used to be due to inflation and rising cost of living. profit share incentive is great in it's nature, yet the distribution is very unequal and hardly reflects personal performance.
