Pros

Many interesting projects, great place for new grads. Overtime is paid, flexible time schedules, possibilities to go on business trips.

Cons

Employees talk constantly against each other, management encourages this by hailing heroes, who are mostly patchers of code. Very little structure about how the work should proceed. Business trips may become a curse for some workers, who may ended up spending more than 50% of their time abroad.
