Pros

Nice, friendly, helpful people - "help" is a core aspect of the culture and is taken seriously Good PTO and benefits Laid back office culture I got lucky and was able to get a promotion after a year which put my higher education (Masters) to good use.

Cons

Below market comp (at least in Technology) - it definitely feels like we are not staying competitive in the "talent arms race" Lots of meetings and then meetings to recap what was discussed in meetings. I understand broad communication is a tenet of Agile, but I go to work to get work done! It's hard to be a 5'xer here let alone a 10'xer if 25-50% of your time is spent in meetings. Single-minded focus on getting JUnit failures to 0% instead of seeing the bigger picture from a QA standpoint.
