Pros

Free coffee and soda and nice carpettttt........

Cons

Management controls employees out of fear., and if you are not a favorite or minority run do not walk! After working there for almost 6 years I was told I am NOT doing my job correctly. Even though they will never admit to discrimination, I am seeking law counseling advice To see what the repercussions will be. I feel that many False accusations were brought against me all because of my sexual orientation. Oh and by the way management cooks their books! Just a matter of time before their house of cards collapses. Do not waste your time with this Mickey Mouse insurance company as they are a small fish in a huge pond trying to gasp for air.

Pros

I worked as a Software Engineer. It's really easy to get a job, and expectations are low. Even a mediocre worker will shine there. Direct supervisors are pretty understanding for giving emergency undocumented personal time.

Cons

I worked as a Software Engineer. Pay is low, benefits are pretty sub par. Actual management is a VP with no business training, and it shows. They will treat you like children. Meetings about low morale are just a way for management to chew out employees for poor reviews posted online. Threats of mandatory overtime have become more common, and lunches are no being suspended when a VIP is visiting executive management.

Pros

Management is flexible, I've never had an issue when I needed a day or two off. Co-workers are great. Excellent spot to park and gain some experience, everyone is always willing to lend a hand or some perspective on how something can be done better.

Cons

No upward movement... ever. Unless you're on the "Hot" product of the time, you will never see a promotion, focus is always geared towards new aquisitions and anyone working on the software for those new shiny companies will be the ones to reap the rewards. Pay is never re-evaluated to see if the minimum cap needs to be raised to bring seasoned employees on par in pay to new hires. Pay is right around 35% below the regional average,
