Pros

* Lots of openness & communication from the executive * Good focus on work/life balance. Everyone leaves at a reasonable hour and you aren't expected to work outside of work hours. Everyone takes vacation. * Benefits are good. * We get ownership of our projects and get a say in what we work on

Cons

* Pay is decent but not the best you can get in the industry
