Pros

Comfortable office environment. Good benefits. Encouraging cultural shifts. Yearly bonus. Yearly raise/promotion 'opportunities'. Very comfortable place to grow and gain experience.

Cons

Going through some growing pains and it shows in internal quality expectations versus deadlines set with clients. Limited holidays. 2 weeks of vacation per year until 5 years, regardless of experience. Limited compensation relative to cost of living.
