Pros

* if u have no job and get an offer from this company, this is a good stepping stone while u learn * I think this is still a stable company (no layoff yet)

Cons

* no vacation (unlimited vacation in management term) = 1/2 - 3/4 months of money less than other companies for many employees * No raise for promotion (neither stock or salary) ....if I knew this earlier, I would not like a promotion! * almost no matching on 401k (1.2%? don't remember the smaller fraction!!) * fire-fighter style with no money rewards!
