Pros

I like my team and work. This is the first job I don't dread coming to. The pay is above average and the typical work week is 38 hours. Honestly it's perfect for relaxed devs who don't want to work for some big tech company.

Cons

I guess I see some office politics and whatnot sometimes but unless you're a lead or management you can pretty much ignore it.

Pros

(At the time) Fair pay and predictable bonus structure They were pretty good at covering travel expenses and paying them back quickly Diverse workforce & diversity initiatives Fun and funny coworkers Opportunities for growth Again, this was all four years ago and has likely changed

Cons

(At the time and now, according to other comments) Arrogant to a fault Total lack of innovation & willingness to innovate Odd attachment to the company's past (which prevents progress) High number of veterans (20+ years) who are determined to get that retirement money, and therefore, are resistant to change and technology Heavy reliance on command and control management style Poor decision-making that leads to losses of all kinds
