Pros

There is always something interesting to work on and you can create your own opportunities. It is easy to work with other employees in different job areas and locations. If you have a good idea and you can sell the idea to management you can go ahead with the project.

Cons

Company does not make money! Stock options are worthless. 401K match is sub-standard. Senior Management is not competent. All the IT systems are totally inadequate - its VERY FRUSTRATING when email goes down a few times a year for no apparent reason!
