Pros

a) It's mostly software company thus software developers are treated as first class citizens which is not that common for NYC; b) Competitive benefits (base + bonus, 401K, medical, etc) c) Great life-work balance (flexible schedule, 20 work days vacation, 20 sick leaves, work from home, etc) d) Broad range of projects and architectures - client/server, unix, windows, mobile, Java, C, C++, C#

Cons

1) As in most of NY companies - work environment, lots of people, can be noisy, some distractions; 2) Management can do a better job - sometimes too tough on person and schedule, some problems in listening to developer and understanding his/her position

Pros

free lunch, drinks and snacks

Cons

No room for growth, managers do not allow you to pursue goals or learn new things. They want you to evolve with no knowledge. Hire idiots

Pros

Excellent benefits Good perks You learn how to work in a fast-paced environment

Cons

Due to the nature of the work, it's a very high pressure environment. At times, it felt like a sweat shop. If you are just starting out in your career, please do not work here. You will not learn the latest technologies and you will stagnate. There is so much overhead that has nothing to do with programming and there is very little room for advancement.
