Pros

Vertical promotion opportunities are endless; you can stay in the company forever. A fairly good yearly bonus. A good work-life balance.

Cons

The salary is lower than market. The bonuses are aimed for long-term benefit, i.e., stock bonuses will be vested over the 4-year period. This means they are incentivizing you to stay longer in the company instead of giving you immediate benefit. Organizational structure is all about competition. Culture is based on pseudo values, not genuine ones.
