Pros

Managers let you all individuals have a lot of potential input on the projects. They have a lot of nice perks like free sodas, often free food days, and a relaxed environment. Benefits such as insurance and retirement are standard.

Cons

The hiring process and workplace is filled with secrets, selectively presented truths, and frills. They try to do everything they can to get people to work for them and stay. The technology is a horrible to work with and was written in the 80s. In fact the software is so bad that when working with it you often feel that you'd be better off ditching it all and rewriting it in C++ from scratch (literally). If you ask too many questions they quit answering them. They don't give employees concrete expectations and if you don't quickly meet their expectations they fire you immediately. All firings are done under-handedly and it seems that they fire many people. If you leave the company make sure you get a copy of all your last day paperwork in case they sue you later.

Pros

Makes for another notch on a resume.

Cons

Toxic work environment / culture. Don't expect to walk away with marketable skills.

Pros

Many of the employees were absolutely terrific to work with. Great people struggling against a restrictive system (though almost all of that team has since been let go). Decent work-life balance and reasonable hours. Healthcare was adequate.

Cons

I do not at all recommend working for Sawsoft. I was misled during the hiring process, low-balled on starting salary, lied to repeatedly about raises, experienced having my job and the jobs of most of my coworkers threatened repeatedly, and laid off along with about half the company after receiving only positive feedback from management. The language used will not progress your career, and interactions with management are categorically negative, even if said in a pleasant voice with a smile. I do not recommend working here. I strongly urge you to find somewhere to work where you can feel secure, be appreciated, advance your career, and be adequately compensated.
