Pros

Company operates like a startup.

Any ideas are welcome, as long as you have the initiative to implement them.

Opportunities are plentiful; you're not stuck in a career ladder.

Cons

Extremely long hours.

Company is growing out of a start-up but still operating like a start-up; departments are far from cohesive.

Pace of change is too quick, making it difficult to set work objectives or career goals.

Advice to Management

Find an operating org structure and pave a development path for employees.

Alleviate competing priorities and constant change in direction and targets.
