Pros

The company has had and probably will continue to have solid growth. Although not an expert in the area, my impression is that the BU is very competent. I think the company has a bright future if it can solve the infrastructure issues created by rapid growth. Management team works hard to maintain high employee morale.

Cons

Lake many other companies it is a bit too focused on short term. Engineering Productivity is very low and needs to improve. This means a lot of weekend work to catch-up. It is much more of a relationship company than a metric company. This means it is not what you do but how you do it that matters. Being well liked will make up for failed projects.
