Pros

Good company for those that knows how to avoid micro managed top managements but not to those that is going for result & performance

Cons

The more hard-working you are, the more pressure you will get. Do expect all the worst words and meetings called after working hours (even at midnight). No cubicle concept, 2x4 tables
