Pros

Lots of young employees who love sports. Marketing department gets some perks compared to others.

Cons

Nearly impossible to get promoted, unless someone else leaves. Senior management doesn't really do anything but take lower levels work and present it. Doesn't seem to care when talent leaves, just hires new lower levels.

Open thinking encouraged. Great deal of get the job done, very little finger pointing.

Layoffs caused by poor decision making on programming and how it affect everyday jobs.
