Pros

-people/co-workers, for the most part, are great. -pleasant working environment -work/life balance encouraged (but not always achievable)

Cons

-pay is low compared to industry standards -management is out of touch -career path unclear -when advancement is available, it comes at a cost; i.e. an increase in title carries additional quota. Promotions are not given based on merit or performance. -nepotism is RAMPANT- I've never seen anything like it. -exec mgmt team does what they want and not what is best for the client or employee
