Pros

Love the mission, the people are very special and the work life balance is good. I enjoy the team i work with and get a fair amount of freedom about my work.

Cons

Senior management is stuck in the past and needs to react more quickly to a changing world. There are a lot of very sharp young people who can not get exciting and helpful programs off the ground. No real opportunity for advancement and far to structured a promotion program and talent is not rewarded.
