Pros

benefits and perks are good like - health insurance, bonuses, holiday gifts, company events. Nice colleagues and atmosphere with other workers, Collaboration. Respectful and ethical working environment.

Cons

Long and stressful hours. Long lasting projects, which change quite a lot. Not a good balance between work and life balance anymore. Salaries are quite low, no salary raises unless you are at the top 5%. A lot of support and maintenance work. Management does not always think of the good of the employees. Constant organizational changes. Award and recognition system is somewhat random and disappointing, Employee evaluations is strict and somewhat arbitrary No system for mangement evaluation.

Pros

I would work for them again. The company has recently privatized. Hopefully, this will be for the benefit of the company and it's employees. Everyone I worked with was very competent and knowledgeable. The visibility between sales, marketing, development and support was the best I have seen. There were many good customer relationships. Feedback from the customer often directed the product development which resulted in rich, fully-functioned products.

Cons

Employment was unstable. Working with groups in non-US time-zones became a challenge.
