Pros

In a high-tech, low-cost area of the country with good employment prospects. Small company where you can make a difference...first and mid-level managers and employees work together as a team to collectively accomplish the mission.

Cons

Higher management has peformed virtually all job functions at some point and has same expectations of competency for most employees from the start. Singular focus is on business side; being a "fun place to work" is not a consideraton at all.
