Pros

The people are great and the benefits are great. It's a hard-working group of serious folks. Seems everyone is a type A personality and they push through projects fast. Quality of product is excellent.

Cons

Transparency and internal communications are an issue. Quality of life-work/life balance is an issue for many people. Not much responsiveness from counterparts overseas on putting in the effort or the hours.

Long hours, not much feedback from management regarding performance.
