Pros
If you're a junior, this is a good place to come learn and build websites with the existing team. You end up learning a lot about various tech, that said it is largely legacy code. The people on the team are friendly to work with day to day, and from a bigger perspective, the CEO is pretty motivated to try to do different things.
Cons
You'll quickly outgrow the existing codebase, especially if you are someone into modern web development. While they are trying to rebuild and make new modern websites, the biggest problem is lack of "cohesion" with the team. Most of the coding is outsourced, and communication about what's going on is terrible. The outsourced team may also replace you -- so there's that, they are trying to soak up whatever you know -- so you may end up being their teacher for free, lol. Managers come and go, especially around senior management. I got the sense that most of the senior people just wanted to finish a few gigs -- pretty up their resume, and get out. There was no long term vision -- which makes it hard to grow your individual career.

Pros
I have been here a few years now and I am finally getting around to writing a review. I can definitely see myself working here for many years to come. Management is great here, they work with you if you need any time for family. They also give you opportunities to prove yourself and if you take the opportunity, they will reward you. It is possible to move up within the company if you are willing to put in the extra work. I really enjoy the new work space as well. Great amenities, a gym, espresso and kombucha on tap.
Cons
I have to look for parking some mornings.
