Pros

Unlimited Paid Time Off plus holidays and the week between Christmas and New Years off. Good perks and a really relaxed atmosphere. Good parental leave. Hybrid work model is very nice. It's a good place to stay for a while, most of my coworkers have been there for 30+ years.

Cons

Pay could be better and the Boise office in particular is kinda depressing. It's dark and filled with gray cubicles that have been there since the 90s, nothing like other tech company offices I've visited.

Pros

Fantastically little manager oversight. I hate being micromanaged. Give me some direction and let me work. In this way, it is great. I contract through a staffing agency, who I also never talk to. A dream. Pay is good. Expectations are low (which could be a con for some).

Cons

There is really no manager guidance, and hardly any feedback. Managers aren't allowed to meet regularly with contractors. Very hierarchical. Super slow task initiation. SUPER slow implementation. Like a six-month to one-year dev backlog. Not a good fit if you're hungry and a change-agent and live to make work processes better. Did I say slow? I meant glacial. And tribal/political. And scrumfall dysfunction. Other than that, it's great.
