Pros

Some brilliant, kind human beings 401k matching Decent benefits

Cons

I have heard of people working 10-12 hour days!! My job description became so convoluted that when I asked for clarification or expressed interest in specializing, I was either met with condescension or simply brushed off. As my responsibilities increased, I was repeatedly promised a raise (which never came to fruition.)
