Pros

Great place to work, with an above market salary, great benefits package including insurance, share purchase programmes, and substantial bonuses. Work is often demanding, and interesting, and the company hires smart people.

Cons

Often long hours, compounded by a lack of ownership, particularly in the support or back office departments. Decision making is extremely slow. Can be extremely frustrating to work on initiatives which just stagnate because no one wants to be the first to say yes or no.
