Pros

Everyone has a fun sense of fitness and eating well. I really enjoyed my coworkers and the freedom of what I got to work on. There's also a great ease about contacting and learning from people in other departments to further your career without any formalities.

Cons

I noticed a slightly negative vibe almost daily here. I think a lot of people feel stifled by upper management and many people seem to work intense hours. You can have work-life balance if you want it, but many people stay late and are stressed constantly.
