Pros: Great Company to work for. Has good benefits and a really great CEO. You get to work for a futuristic company focussed on ground breaking technology
Cons: Not many except management. The management picks a few favorites and mistreats the rest of the team. There is something wrong with the manager, when everyone talks bad about him behind this back. There is blatant plagiarism where the favorites copy ideas from the rest of the team and the manager allows it.
