Pros

Good benefits and has great people to work with.

Cons

Employees feel inundated by multiple projects happening simultaneously. Upper management fails to adequately acknowledge the accomplishments of their direct reports. Clear pathways for career advancement are lacking. The company exhibits overall disorganization. Additionally, the organization establishes unrealistic goals without providing the necessary resources for their achievement.

Pros

They trusted me to do a job that other companies didn't have faith a recent college graduate could do well. They were right to, and likely did so because of a thorough interview process. After only a couple months I have been a solid contributor to my work. They stock the fridges with breakfast and lunch food as well as drinks (sometimes a few beers), so most days lunch is free. There is a lot of freedom and trust involved, and everyone is part of a culture that lives up to expectations without strict rules.

Cons

I haven't had a full time job for more than a summer before this, so it haven't wrapped my head around how little time I will have for trips each year but that comes with a full time job. The effort that so many employees put in to their work creates a good work environment, but creates pressure to work extra hours and sometimes work at unpreferable hours. We have taken on a large workload, and some of my coworkers need more help to relieve some of the work, but they are hiring quickly to fix this.
