Pros

Constantly developing new exciting products.

Cons

Management hires friends, allowing the "Good O Boy System" meaning if your in the friend club, you're performance does not matter. Management takes care of their friends, while others work harder and do not get rewarded.

Pros

Good working environment Exciting projects Great coworkers (for the most part, like any place)

Cons

Like any maturing company, it has become more and more top-heavy, placing more and more emphasis on project management and milestones, sometimes over bread-and-butter engineering. I could have half the PMs I have now and do a better job
