Pros

Lots of growth oppurtunity. If your passionate about an idea you can find someone who will listen to you and support you.

Cons

They're growing in all directions at one time. You can get lot in the shuffle or become a "has been" quickly. Only the loudest voices are heard.

Business Outlook

Pros

Environment allowing staff at many levels to take risks. Some reward associated, though more intrinsic than extrinsic.

Cons

Little oversight and quality control. Flat - democratic organization generally a good thing, but here it has been taken too far with little enforcement of focused strategic vision from the top.
