Pros

- Weekly All-hands meetings to motivate employees - Free lunches - Good, solid VC's backing - Good founder with high level of integrity

Cons

Untrustworthy CEO and executive staff. Only after the company was sold to Symantec that I learned it was the CEO's career pattern to sell employees on long-term vision, but the moment a semi-attractive offer comes along, he sold out. This was a similar pattern with his previous company.

Pros

Clearwell Systems is a market leader in an emerging space called electronic discovery. Being a leader, they will have great growth and will likely dominate. If you want to learn about this area, and want to build your carreer, this company would be a good one.

Cons

The company can be a difficult place to work on account of "cultural fit". You may find that you need to be an outgoing, social person, yet doesn't ask tough questions. Especially troublesome would be if you ask your boss a tough question - he/she will get defensive. You'll also be shocked when you get your annual performance review. Even if you put in extra-ordinary effort and everything looks great, when it comes to review, you'll likely be surprised that others who were more of a cultural fit get better reviews, better raises and promotions.
