      Pros

      relatively easy job....members are usually sane and support is so much easier since we don't have to support the Family Tree Maker software anymore now that its been handed over to MacKiev.

      Cons

      Trying to move up in the company is a horrible game; aka company culture/politics are awful. Pay is meh, job is stressful. Really high turnover rate means a flood of new hires and accompanying incompetence.

      At the old HQ I would have said parking was a con; but at the new HQ we have plenty of covered parking for everyone
