Pros

Good company culture. People are nice to each other in general. You can have work and life balance. Financially the company is pretty stable and strong.

Cons

Pay is not up to par. Management is focusing a lot on stock performance and cost control. There's a lot of old people working here and the company is lack of dynamics.
