Pros
Work-life balance is one of the strongest points of this company. Everyone has a ridiculous amount of vacation days from the very beginning. The salary is reasonable but not outstanding; the profit-sharing and bonus are nice. The benefits are very good, and the retirement plan is structured to make it easy to start building up money for retirement without even having to try that hard.
Cons
Overly formal, not at all a meritocracy. Everything moves at a snail's pace and becomes wrapped in layers of red tape. If you are looking for a fast-paced job where you can rise quickly through the ranks if you work hard - this is definitely NOT it. Promotions are based on "who knows you", so be prepared to schmooze if you want to get ahead. Overt criticism or questioning of accepted wisdom, even when necessary and constructive, is often not welcomed.
