Pros

Fairly mature platform services to build applications on, smart people to work with yet very informal atmosphere, exciting environment to work in, nice office perks, ability to work at least some at home, friendly people, no dress code (workout gear perfectly acceptable for developers), ActiveX (an in-house program to provide a physical/mental outlet through fitness), employee stock purchase plan is pretty good

Cons

Active is perhaps not the best at implementing Agile, at least not on the team I work with. So they tend to carry over too many stories instead of focusing and designing stories that can be done in a sprint. I think the pay could also be better.

Pros

People I work with personally Healthy oriented culture Great benefits San Diego office nice

Cons

Turnover is severe , even the CEO listed in this Glassdoor profile has abandoned ship Management know little about true leadership and lean on intimidation tactics instead The president Darko s out of touch with reality . He brought his crew over from Monster, with their "expertise" managing a job classified site (i.e. glorified content management system), and are now responsible for managing enterprise software which they don't have a clue about People are leaving every week because of constantly changing management, poor leadership, and inability to spend money keeping salaries competitive
