Pros

The office location is convenient. Flexible hours. Most of the employees are good. The salary is fair.

Cons

Too top heavy with many overlaps. Delegate and deflect seems to be the name of the game when it comes to responsibilities. Pretending like you know what you are doing gets you further than actually doing good work.
