Pros

Enticing culture which attempts to strike a healthy balance between Work Hard and Play Hard.

Cons

Play Hard cultural events are a nice feature, but not worth substandard pay levels, severely limited resources and unrealistic work performance expectations. HR function is a complete joke at this company (unprofessional and incompetent with no independent thinking or influence).
