Pros

Young, dynamic, and casual work environment, great to start career after university. Good benefits and amazing colleagues.

Cons

Low salaries, long hours, and high turnover. Key resourceful employees leave for better paying companies, which stunts the overall growth and development of the company to stay competitive with their product offering. Company is stuck in a "startup" like phase, that can't mature due to C-level management being out of touch with the product and employees on the front line. Very low salaries for the amount of work done, benefits don't always match the low pay and extra work put in. Longer than 40 hour work weeks.
