Pros

Colleagues were great, perks were excellent, location was wonderful. Compensation was good. Work and life balance.

Cons

Lack of direction from management. Reorganization in every where, every year. The CEO who came from Europe, has no strategy but laying off people to keep balance on the book. Shame on him.
