Pros

Great industry to be a part of. Innovative work and smart hard working peers working here.

Cons

New CEO, seems very business oriented which in a sense can be good, but doesn't seem to value people as people. Decisions are made very corporate like and I felt like a line item to the business instead of like a person. I did not feel that way with my direct supervisor, or team, however in the eyes of the company I do not feel individuals are valued.

Pros

I'm not there anymore. Fair pay. Started out great.

Cons

Midway through a year-long contract I already started looking. It was an extremely boring place to work. This is the kind of place where you stay within your boundary. In other words, if you are an architect, you design diagrams all day. No hands-on work - even if you know what you're doing. I was even rebuked on several occasions for working with a developer to help him out. I was told I needed to tell him to ask someone else responsible for that. If you like to do hands on and you are an architect, you will hate it here.
