Pros

Flexible work schedule.

Some great people work here. You can choose your work-life balance, but your choice will determine your promotion opportunities.

Cons

Not so good compensation. Not so good management. Not so good colleagues (usually underperformers with fancy titles). Hostile atmosphere. Politics.

Advice to Management

Do not use working experience in years as a measure of professional development.

Consider using modern technologies and contributing more to the open-source community.

Train managers to give rational, logical, and factual feedback.
