Pros
The same things you have read over and over: flexible time off, extremely casual dress code, flexible hours, free pop, unique office space, fun company events. A lot of people speak negatively about Groupon, but I think it should be appreciated for what it is. If you've ever worked in a stuffy office with a lot of needless red tape and rules, you will appreciate what they are offering!
Cons
Management is young, arrogant, and ignorant in many cases. In my experience, your manager will not view you as a colleague, but as a threat, so they will try to talk down to you and keep their thumb on your head. Senior management constantly contradicts lower level management and etc. It's really just a bit silly!
