      Good place to get experience and get out

      Anonymous employee

      Pros

      The benefits are pretty good and you get ample time off.

      Cons

      The benefits seem to get worse each year and the upper management and execs find something new and shiny to switch to before we even get the original product or toolset figured out. There is always a constant feeling of being in limbo. Pay is generally low for the area and work experience.

      Pros

      The company was good to their employees.

      Cons

      I took off 2 stars for the low pay. If they payed the people in support better they could keep people longer.
