Pros

People oriented and transparent business practices. Your experience may depend on your team, but most people here are genuine people who care about doing a good job.

Cons

There are some issues with knowledge silos. There are some positions that have been held by the same person for 20+ years, which is great in some ways, but also results in come amount of complacency and reluctance to share knowledge. Also the pay is pretty average. Not really much that most managers can do about that, but it causes unavoidable turnover as you have to leave to get much of a pay increase.
