Pros

Great culture. Talented people. Lot of autonomy.

Cons

Pay is equal amongst employees and heavily influenced by location. No room for career progression.

Advice to Management

Focus more on internal recruitment for your leadership and C-level positions. These people know the company and are eager for growth.

Too many times, I have seen upper management or C-levels hired from outside, and then they just leave after a while.
