Pros

Like to retain employees, very smart senior individuals, business is run very well. Information sharing is very high and individuals are given a large amount of responsibility at a junior level.

Cons

Does not promote a healthy work/life balance. Compensation is often lower than market rate given the amount of work and hours expected of the employee.
