Pros

- casual environment, friendly people - work / life balance is good for the most part (mostly because projects go for a LONG time, so you only have to work extra when it FINALLY becomes time to deliver something)

Cons

- a massive and severe disconnect between senior management and developers / other professionals. (sales men selling vapor ware, CEO's needing to be told the same thing every few months) - not willing to invest enough time to make software products ... but expects them to come from time pressured, client specific projects - no real commitment to quality software. Entirely date driven.

Pros

Nice people, quick turnover of staff means you get to meet lots of new people. They pay new staff well. (I received a 20% pay bump when I moved to TSWG).

Cons

Terrible culture. Terrible Management. Terrible Business model. From a software developers point of view, the code base is a complete mess. No single mind has spent a long enough amount of time developing a consistent architecture for the majority of the systems. The result being a mass hack job.
