Pros

Promotion is fast if you are willing to showcase yourself.

Relaxed dress code. Mostly friendly people. Great health benefits.

Cons

Most managers don't have experience with the software, so when something urgent pops up, they just panic and put pressure on developers.

There is a disconnect between those who decide and estimate on a high level and the actual time and effort needed by developers. If something is missed, the deadline made doesn't change. This causes low morale for the developer because, in the end, they will be blamed for it.

Advice to Management

Not needed.
