      Pros

      Software management at this company is very good, both in their capability to estimate work, and in their technical knowledge. This may be because the software managers are taken from the same pool as developers, so they have many of the traditional skillsets that developers have. The average quality of software developers is quite high; unlike other jobs, I rarely have not had to re-do substantial work done by another employee to maintain quality within the past 5 years. There is significant project turnover, which helps keep us up-to-date on the latest technologies. We mostly work on medical projects, which is nice, as it makes you feel that when you're doing your job well, you are likely to improve your society.

      Cons

      There is relatively little cross-communication between projects; in many cases, I barely know people who have been here for years if I haven't been on one of their projects. Choice as to which project to work on is essentially absent. This means that the process, team, tools, devices, computers, and manager may change frequently, depending on your current work. We are sometimes hired as a "last resort"; i.e. when the hiring company and/or other contractors failed. While we usually succeed on such projects, there can be some front-loaded stress when we get on such a project.

      Posted on behalf of Pat Carr, President & CEO, Syncro We appreciate your comment about cross-communication between projects – you’re right that we can tend to operate in project “silos” at times. We initiated Roundtable meetings as well as Lunch-and-Learn sessions earlier this year in part to address the need for employees on different projects to have greater opportunities for interaction. We hope our periodic “lunches under the tent” events have helped with this as well. And, to clarify about my title. While I’m officially “President and CEO”, I usually just use “President” to keep things simple …

      Pros

      • Work on a variety of interesting medical software projects alongside smart teammates and a supportive management team. • Projects and teams are always changing. During my first year, I worked on three different projects, each with its own unique challenges. I found that this kept the work interesting. • The engineers and managers at Syncro are some of the best people to work with. Supportive, friendly, team-oriented people.

      Cons

      This is not really a negative, but I thought I should mention that Syncro bases its schedules on a 45 hour work week, so most people will eat lunch at their desks while working. I still get to interact with my teammates; it's just usually through the course of work and Syncro events (picnics, holiday parties, etc). I should also mention that Syncro has never asked me to stay late or work on weekends. At some other places, I had weeks closer to 50 or 55 hours, so I've appreciated the consistency of my schedule at Syncro.
