Pros

There is a really good culture, flexible hours, and good WLB.

Cons

Below-average yearly raises; compensation increases are not competitive. You can get stuck at your current level if upper management is bad. It depends on the organization, though it is easy to switch organizations internally.

Advice to Management

Pay needs to be competitive.
