Pros

Many of the higher-ups and engineering managers have worked together at previous companies and everyone tends to mesh well without office politics coming into play. They are very remote friendly which allows for lots of personal flexibility.

Cons

Communication from the top is opaque to put it nicely. It isn't always clear what the direction of a given project is and it can be difficult to understand the concrete requirements that need to be met when implementing a piece of software. Process also tends to create very tedious days of managing JIRA and lots of code reviews. Much of the development team is overseas and while that in itself is not a problem, a lack of clear direction make it difficult to coordinate.

Pros

The company is full of very smart people who have been in the field of HealthIT for many years and have a great reputation with customers. There is no shortage of work and new technology being learned and used. From Node.JS, to server side Java, .NET, NoSQL, etc. Management is open to suggestions from engineers and allows development practices and tools to evolve as needs change (for instance Continous integration servers, code quality metrics, etc) Fun yet professional environment. The culture is definitely silicon valley but not what I have seen called a "brogramming" environment.

Cons

There are growing pains as the teams expand and the number of customers increase. However, management is very active in addressing pain points as they arise.
