Pros

- People are great - Plenty of challenging work to go around - Flexible hours - Lots of responsibility and capability to make a difference

Cons

- Lots or roadmap churn! (hard to tell if this is from rapid changes in industry or management ignorance) - Company not doing so well - imminent threat of lay-offs - Management has had several missteps as of late (but hopefully only part of the learning process) - Pay for performance is inadequate - High attrition lately - brain drain has me worried
