Pros: Very good work/life balance.
Relaxed and friendly work environment.
Plenty of opportunity to work on interesting projects, even for junior employees.
Lots of independence (depending on manager).
Benefits are pretty good: health/dental/vision insurance are good plans and affordable, and 401k matching is nice.
Cons: Pay isn't competitive with other major tech companies.
Little opportunity for movement or advancement within the company.
Few holidays (8 per year), little vacation (13-18 depending on seniority, but 4 mandatory at Christmas).
High turnover leads to bad morale.
