Pros

The people you come across every day are some of the nicest, brightest, and most talented folks you will ever meet. You feel like you are learning something new all the time, and are powered through the longer work days by the exciting and energized atmosphere. Most everyone seems happy to be here and willing to help answer any questions or assist with any project. Definitely an open culture.

Cons

Things get a little sticky and less comfortable when dealing with upper-level management. It is clear the company struggles with emphasizing work/life balance values and it doesn't seem like upper-level management is supportive of ways to combat this.
