Pros

Flexible working hours Working with smart people and good technologies

Cons

Once you join don't expect your salary to rise by much no matter how good you are. After a couple of years other companies are more competitive which makes it very tempting to leave. Very inexperienced people managers don't know how to treat employees and keep moral high. Constant fire fighting and a short term view on everything. Constant reorgs make people less productive. Experience is not valued.
