Pros

Nice family - work life balance. Reasonable compensation. If you provide value to the company, appreciation follows.

Cons

Sometimes, the promotion/hiring decisions for leadership positions are terrible. Buddy system works. Right now, I am not interested in leadership level positions but this could be an issue for me in the future.
