Pros

The employees actually getting their hands dirty and doing the work are some of the best people you could ever work with. Work life balance is unmatched here.

Cons

Even after layoffs the firm is very top heavy and provides no real room for career growth as well as financial growth. Expect to make less and less money (and benefits) every year you work here. Even with a promotion.
