Pros

The culture. I was able to knock on the president's door and talk, sometimes without an appointment. Best group of people ever. Lots of BBQs, bowling outings, movies, happy hours after work, and holiday parties. Smaller company and I got to work in all aspects of engineering. Sometimes working on the shop floor and sometimes with marketing taking calls from doctors.

Cons

A little disorganized with all the new management and some of the employee growth stuff wasn't well organized, but they'll get there one day. Not happy with salary. Didn't move much from when I started.
