Pros
Awesome place to work if you are just starting out. Great co-workers, ideal location if you live in town and enjoy being in town. Good benefits, the current building provides parking for a monthly fee. Lots of dedicated programmers and a robust networking/IT team. The IT Ops position will teach a little bit of everything: some networking, some script writing if you are proactive, some SDLC, some agile work methodology, some analytical skills, some help-desk type work items, lots of Azure and SQL. Most of the time you will have to have good attention to detail, and be open to a rotating schedule. It is also a foot in the door; if you are a promising programmer or math whiz, keep an eye out for any openings in those other departments. The IT dept is a fun, solid group. If you join them as a new Operator, congrats!
Cons
Open-concept office but does not encourage too much small-talk unless you eat lunch with everyone at the same time. IT Ops has a rotating schedule, sometimes going past the 12am mark for later schedules (but rare). I haven't seen the company fight to keep employees in the past. They take progress seriously, if you don't make good work with your immediate co-workers it can hamper your employee review. (Again, attention to detail is key).
