Pros

Some of the finest adult beverages in the world. Flexible working schedule, family friendly. Good benefits, bonus structure, and vacation policy. Opportunity for growth if in the right department/function. Great severance policy!

Cons

Since 2008 they re-org which results in good people being let go. They've moved away from valuing the experience people bring to simply caring about "the bottom line". If they can do this role in Budapest or somewhere else where labor is 40-60% cheaper than US, its moved.
