Pros

Flexible schedules, good people that are friendly, every position in the company has opportunity to make a large impact, plenty of opportunities to gain new experience

Cons

The programming industry is on the decline, and every day there is new low-cost competition from Asia to deal with. Customers see programming as a nuisance to be taken care of at the lowest cost, so they are never happy.

Pros

Management cares about the employees. The Company has been in business for a long time, but never seems to get over the hump and thrive. But lots of Companies have come and gone during that time frame, but they have managed to stay in business.

Cons

Have never been able to profitably grow the Company, so goes through cyclical hirings and layoffs. Little opportunity for advancement since positions are routinely eliminated.
