Pros

Proven product, continued growth through the recession. Decent technology investment, emphasis on absorbing new practices (agile, lean) even if it means change, and movement towards new technologies. Technology closer to the business domain than most organizations. Less chaotic than companies of similar and larger size.

Cons

Not always as strategic, tends towards opportunistic approach to business and tech development. Structure creates entanglements of large groups needing to be involved on decisions but improvements underway.

Pros

Decent pay. Not much else.

Cons

No lunch break, no breaks in general, can’t go to the bathroom for hours on end, the managers’ daughter gets special treatment because her mother is in charge. Constant criticism and unfair treatment.
