Pros

Fun people. Fitness-oriented employees. There are a lot of ways to get involved with the company outside of work. Very young crowd. Even though management is out of control, they are very forthcoming and easy to talk to.

Cons

Management doesn't know up from down... policies change on a minute by minute basis. The products stink and we are not competitive with our rivals. Commission structures fluctuate like the weather. No choices for sales makes any sense. There are policies and procedures in place solely to waste our time. Scare tactics are used to get employees to overperform. Raises are not granted, and trying to get into another job internally is a complete nightmare. And, to boot, the benefits are horrid.

Pros

Opportunities to work with good people. The ability to interact with Fortune 100 level clients gives exposure to situations that you wouldn't necessarily be exposed to in other small software companies. They are flexible with schedules and try to keep employees using cutting edge technology. By promoting the "active" lifestyle they allow employees to pursue a lot of extra activities. The people working at Active really believe in the products they are delivering and you have the chance to see your efforts used first hand. Overall, it is a decent place to work. It has its struggles like everywhere, but it is ok.

Cons

The management of Active does not understand how to use the many acquisitions they have made in the last couple of years and there are a lot of inefficiencies from that.

Pros

Growth of the company provides significant opportunity to learn new skills as an employee but the entreprenurial environment still allows folks to see how their work impacts the company.

Cons

With significant growth, its always changing. Hard to keep up.
