Pros

There is nothing to recommend this company as a Software Engineer. In 3 months at this company - I've maybe spent 2 days actually doing anything with code. If I'm looking for a pro - maybe its that salary was adequate. Not more than you can get anywhere else though.

Cons

Here's the boots on the ground reality: 1.) Deadlines are dictated. 2.) Forced OT 3.) Culture expects 45-50 hours a week 4.) Old Technology - and poor quality - they can't even produce regression tests for 5 year old software 5.) Software Engineers will do all QA - there is zero Quality support (OK - maybe some - they gave me a document template once!) 6.) PMO Will dictate your tasks and tell you - you will work weekends if the simple resource/hours division indicates it 7.) There is no reliable testing environment 8.) You will be on-call 9.) You will be responsible for Deadlines/Dev/QA/Delivery Instructions/Machine Definitions/Delivery and Production Support. You will be empowered for almost nothing. I feel like a total idiot for taking this job. Also I see one 5 star review - I don't know anyone who works there who felt anything like that. Take it for what you will.

Pros

Company focuses on keeping employees happy. Competitive salaries and excellent location in Scottsdale. More new products will put the company on the map

Cons

Some processes need work and some responsibilities need the adequate experienced people, but this is being worked on. Sems like some departments are very isolated

Pros

Great culture, compensation, and environment.

Cons

Growing fast and struggling to increase manpower to accommodate. Very reactionary at this time because of the growth.
