Pros

Very ethical company, lots of autonomy, good work/life balance, interesting field, wonderful collaborative culture (competitive without being cut-throat), outstanding colleagues that you'll be proud to work with

Cons

Very little recognition for outstanding work, very "clique-y" culture that easily excludes people who don't "fit in", opaque career paths, the midwest white male culture has a hard time grasping the needs and perspectives of global colleagues such as in Asia, very slow and risk averse. It seemed that only the squeaky wheels got rewarded, so those with narcissistic personalities got promotions, raises, and other rewards while those who were doing excellent work in a collaborative way were completely overlooked.
