Pros

-Good work/life balance
-HR department hosts small events to improve company culture
-Staff discounts
-a marketing focused business
-opportunities to go on rides with friends at lunch
Cons
-Upper/middle management very siloed (never heard/saw managers meetings).
-Some managers seemed incompetent at managing and decision-making.
-Incompetence is tolerated.
-if not at manager level you are largely kept out of the information loop (this information would have helped you with your job).
-Pace of development is very slow (low expectations)
-very much a copy-cat industry, copy what an industry leader is doing, tweak it slightly, and you will stay afloat with your existing brand loyalty.
-medical/dental coverage is below average
-Largely a male environment. Alpha male ego was a common theme around the office.
-President seems totally detached from the business operations. Saw the president once, during a town hall, during my time at Raceface
-work culture is too relaxed, managers/directors provide little direction and oversight.
- a marketing focused business
-relatively high turn over from industry standard
