Pros

Location - The Letterman Digital Arts Center was one of the prettiest locations I've ever worked at. Cafeteria - Great variety of food Perks - Free movies! Even though it's on an early Saturday morning in Marin. FUN - Lots of promo events to familiarize and take pride in everyone's work.

Cons

The commute into the Presidio can be a bit of a chore, considering all the work being done to change to the Presidio Parkway.
