Pros

great respect for employees, amazing colleagues, good work environment. Generally, a lot happens and once you gained credibility, you can change and move within the company to pursue new opportunities.

Cons

Sometimes it can take too long to be promoted or get where you want to go. Company is also turning more corporate away from the start up mentality. Very centralized decision making makes it difficult to get things done locally.
