You can do better than working for this company
Pros
Friendly atmosphere, casual dress, and non-management co-workers understand the frustrations trying to meet managements expectations and willing to help each other out when possible.
Cons
If you come from a structured development background with experience developing solid applications this job isn't for you. If you're an intelligent open source hacker that loves writing client-side code desperate for a job you might consider it. This company believes in quantity over quality. Lures clients in making false promises by under projecting costs to make the sale. As developer 90% of your work is setup to fail before it hits your desk. Over 75% of your work isn't actual development work, instead it's troubleshooting technical problems caused by the following... CEO (or Sales Team) makes developers decisions without having any development experience or asking for advice. When advice is given CEO doesn't listen fearing of losing the sale and expects it done his way. This leads to bad software design but that's okay because "bad design means more money from client trying to fix it". Clients are getting smarter about application development and starting to see right through this strategy. Only long term employees are those that are making the decisions. Everyone else is a pawn that's been there 3 or less years. You'll be expected to work 40+ hours a week and all time must be billable to a client not the company. Benefits are horrible with very little work/life balance. You don't start earning vacation and sick days (no combined PTO) or become 401k eligible until you're already seeking a new employer. Developers are treated as an extension to the client's IT Department. If the client needs it done it's the developers job to do it even if it isn't development work. Much of your day is spent connecting to old/slow off-site servers working as a server administrator or SEO programmer. Google is the only source of training when asked to do work that requires you to learn something. Company lacks their own SDLC process instead lets each client dictate it, isn't afraid to test using production environments, and clueless what "best practices" even means in development. Copy and paste using shotgun surgery is the preferred development method. Management, Sales Team, and Project Managers can all assign work to a developer making prioritizing your desk impossible. Work is either over the top detailed with half of it becoming irrelevant about a third of the way through the development process or very vague lacking any sort of expectations; no middle ground. Both will require you to do extensive analysis work up front to implement a development strategy that isn't part of the planned budget.
