      Pros

      Mostly good hearted people, ethnically diverse, opportunities for those that are driven, and gym in building is pretty awesome.

      Cons

      Egocentric Owner that only cares about $$$ (his money), Heartless CEO, limited market research, extremely long road of potential products and planning with no end in mind, they will work you to death (no balance between work and personal life), no remote working, lack knowledge based decisions, meetings are pointlessly mind numbing, lack of leadership, no organization to the department structure, office for only VERY limited personnel, and family health care is EXTREMELY expensive.

      Place to Hang Your Hat

      Pros

      Great place for someone fresh out of school to learn, also a good place to pick up bad habits. Nice work environment if you like a gilded cage. Fair degree of freedom to use tools that would be considered forbidden at similar employers. Informal team environment is good, however, it can be very negative. Great place to get that first promotion. Good place for mid-career banking people to get some software experience.

      Cons

      Very disorganized environment, slipshod quality assurance. Management that ranges from very good (near the bottom) to nearly impossible to deal with that the top. Ownership that is largely absentee and seems clueless. Horrible hands-on, near panic driven management mentality that starts at the top and infects its way down. Legacy software attitude that pervades development and design efforts. Significant morale issues that management falsely and foolishly attributed to the dynamic nature of the labor marketplace.

      Pros

      Job security. I've seen people at Argo, for the entire year I've worked there, sit on there ass and do nothing but play flash games and watch youtube all day, yet they still are working for the company. I worked for Argo part time after I resigned. I have to give them credit here because not many companies will allow you to work for them and another employer at the same time. So there is some flexibility.

      Cons

      Pretty much everything outside of job security. Argo is always hiring, but that is only because people are always quitting. The funny part is they always want to brag about how the company is hiring during tough economic times, LOL. Close to 30 people quit there in 2010. I know because I kept a tab on all the people who quit. One intern even quit without calling and giving a notice. Career growth doesn't exist there. You specialize in the company's proprietary language, and if you decide to leave the company, you will be an obsolete engineer, BA, manager, or whatever you chose to work there as. I actually tried to return to argo because I needed the job security(My current job lacks it). I had plans to return to grad school, and UTD is up the street from the company. It seem like they were going to let me back on, but out of the blue, they killed all my account privileges and access to the building without even telling me my services were no longer needed. They never even gave me a final day for my part time opportunity. They just booted me out of the building. So much for professionalism.
