Pros

Good work-life balance, good location in terms of weather, nice people to work with in general.

Cons

Senior people are not motivated to work. They complain about lack of opportunity but they don't want to relocate. They just hang around and wait for retirement. Some incompetent line managers sit in their office everyday and do nothing. All they care about is getting paycheck.
