Pros

Very generous with vacation, with three weeks at starting, increasing to four, then five fairly quickly. Plus, most teams allow "unlimited" vacation as long as the work is getting done; the actual vacation days you take are not tracked.

Cons

Pay for the industry is towards the lower end for a company of this size.

It is impossible to get promoted without applying for a different position and moving teams.
