Pros

The people are great here; it's friendly and welcoming (excuse the unintended pun), the CEO has a great sense of humour, and there is a broad range of opportunities. I'm fairly new here and really enjoying it so far.

Cons

So far, I haven't come across any, really. I guess I could comment on the lack of adequate parking at the head office.
