Pros

It is one of the most civilised workplaces I have ever worked or seen. The atmosphere is that of a tight-knit family. Everyone is friendly, supportive and willing to help.

Cons

When something is in excess it always has a negative side. The family model can easily become a strict patriarchy where your option is irrelevant and unneeded.

Common problem for bigger companies- lack of transparency.
