No career - Great people

Pros

Production, technology teams and engineers are super nice and friendly. City centre location of the office. There's a very strong workers committee.

Cons

No clear career path. No opportunity to negotiate salary. Management not open to any change. They still run the office as if we were still 90 people instead of 400

Pros

If you're a high performer, you will be given a lot of responsibility very quickly. You will need to learn on your own, but if you're up to the task, you will be exposed to a lot very quickly. Your resume, comparative to time spent at another company (especially if you're entry level), will look great after you leave here. I also learned a tremulous amount from my immediate managers / seniors.

Cons

Horrible initial compensation and pay / raise structure. You are never compensated for your growth; despite any promotions you may receive, they raise you at 3-5% (anything larger needs sign off from senior management or the CEO!). Erratic leadership, poor and disorganized employee onboarding process, and a bad (but yet expected) work - life balance. Wouldn't be so bad if you felt validated / compensated for your work. The company is unabashedly sales focused; being part of any other team makes you feel like you're working in their basement.
