Pros
The schedule is pretty darn flexible if you need it to be. Make it to the meetings you're supposed to be at, generally be available during work hours, and nobody will give you any grief (at least in my area - once again, your mileage may vary). Annual bonus is nice, but definitely not a guarantee. Don't let them convince you that the bonus is where they make up the difference in compensation.
