Pros

Flexible hybrid working conditions, though those are trying to be changed. They know how to throw a great party.

Cons

The CEO is the worst micromanager I have ever seen. He needs to approve every single penny that is spent instead of hiring good people to manage to a budget. He seems to have no trust in any of his employees to do their jobs given everything he has to personally approve (avoiding specifics to not make my position known). His most trusted advisors aren't even employed by the company, however they make most of the important decisions. He would rather fight a lawsuit about anything than doing the right thing for the employees. I have no idea how the company has been in business for so long and highly suspect it will not last much longer.

Pros

The work isn't too tough. The people in the office are skilled and pleasant. There are decent benefits and you can work from home for 2 days.

Cons

The pay is bad. Decent for when you first start but raises are small and infrequent. Bonuses are even smaller and more infrequent. We were fully remote but slowly have been forced back into office for no good reason.
