Pros

Good people. Great building and location. Flexible when it comes to working from home, provided that it is not abused.

Cons

Upper management seems to be more cut-throat and has become very disorganized. Always seems to be changing direction. Terrible communication to employees to a point where no one seems to know what is going on at times. Salaries are low when compared to competitors for the same position.
