Pros

Benefits are great. Health insurance is fully paid if single, and only $199 /mo for a family, this includes dental and vision. Actually, that's the only thing aside from 401k and taxes that come out of my check. PTO is alright. Company is fairly lax and you can work from home when needed. One great benefit is the development budget, $1750 / yr to aid in whatever type of professional development (work vacation).

Cons

They preach culture and call it their "competitive advantage". A big great picture is painted, but when you get in, it seemed rather lack luster to me. Yeah, it's a casual dress code, but many places are adopting that. There was alot that is offered, but I never really saw things utilized. "What fun, scooters!" I saw a handful of people use them. "We have video games!" Never saw anyone play" The product is not without flaws. The company lacks an enterprise architect role to give an over arching design that should be followed. In place of that, individual teams are left to use whatever technology they want within the same master code base. This results in many reworkings, many tools that are only briefly used. This isn't always a problem, but nothing is standard. For example, there are about 3 different ORMs within the same code base, and no, Entity Framework is not one of them. Overall, this place would be great for entry level people. There would be room to grow. Otherwise, the place seems like college days... it hasn't really seemed "professional". Also, I've talked to a number of people who interviewed and have come to realize (myself as an example as well) that they pay under what you asked.

Pros

The CEO, Marketing VP, COO, CFO and a few other senior management staff are great. Benefits are great. Casual dress, free lunch once a ,week. Pay is acceptable for the market.

Cons

The sales leadership is terrible and don't let the charade fool you. They care absolutely nothing about you, only the quota (which they control) by giving territory to those they like. Across the company, if you don't know someone or part of the in crowd, good luck advancing. In fact, they have proven with multiple employees that they will make your job miserable until you quit, or can't meet the standards where they can fire you.. Free lunch once a week is really just a way to keep you in the office, so you'll eat while you work or eat quickly and go back to work as an fyi. They advertise it as a fun place to work with scooters and a game room, but in reality they are greatly understaffed, so no one has time for that....ever... Software team: 7/10 Implementation team is led well: 8/10 Support: no one knows what they are doing and just ask old timers how to fix anything beyond a password reset. 6/10 Marketing: 9/10 People team : 7/10 Finance: 8/10 Sales team: several great employees, and some that senior leadership gave a job from their previous stops.
