Pros

Good benefits. Fellow engineers are great; there's lots of people who enjoy helping others grow. Pay is very good for Helena.

Cons

Very top heavy with managers of managers of managers etc. Transitioning from startup to solid business is not going well for engineers due to overloaded management and too little investment in engineers. Company is more likely to hire someone to fill a higher position than to promote someone already here; promotions are VERY political. Company doesn't seem very interested in expanding the Helena office anymore.
