Pros

- Great CEO - Good C-suite level management - Good work-life balance

Cons

- Pay is below market value - The company does not have any programs or strategy to develop young talent so they systematically push you out by not providing opportunities for growth - Bias in their promotion criteria- the people that decide whether you deserve a promotion have no interface with your work so it's about how well you know someone who has promotion power or how much noise you can attract to your work and not necessarily the quality of it.
