Pros

The environment is friendly, and the people working there are great, both professionally and personally.

The company realized it has a lot of technical debt and is investing heavily in reducing it. It's trying to become a world-class software development firm.

Cons

For most of the lifetime of the company, getting things done in a hacky way has been acceptable. This shows in the state of the codebase, which could be less than pleasant to work with.

Advice to Management

A more balanced approach towards security could make everyone more effective.
