Pros

Free tea, coffee and kitchen usage

Cons

Industrial revolution-era attendance policies: if someone works after hours in the evening you should expect to see them arriving late next morning. You don't have to track those hours. If you're tracking hours for salaried employees, you are unclear on the concept of a salary. Success is defined by the people at the top, and the folks doing the work do not get to set their own goals or decide how best to do their jobs. When people quit (quite often) there is a little no discussion about it. Employees are afraid to mention their former colleagues' name after their leave. Once somebody quits, it's as though your former and well-liked co-worker never existed.
