Pros

Good salary and boost to CV Friendly, helpful & knowledgeable colleagues Good technology to compete in the market

Cons

Crazy environment to meet 12-hour deadlines - this "panic" mentality has become routine! Little time to think about strategy and long term planning; fire fighting to fend off senior management takes up time and energy Little growth potential for career development, management is interested in own career promotion
