Pros

- Interesting products and technology - Burlington office owns entire side of major product line (other side handled by headquarters in WA) - Autonomous office feel - Good work/life balance - Working from home accepted, though almost to a fault

Cons

- Engineering/Product Management has tough time meeting deadlines - Deliverable promises regularly delayed - Lagging behind competitors in mobile marketplace - Rely too heavily on homegrown scripting languages (though slowly moving to Ruby) - No defined plan for professional growth - Office is so empty so often due to amount of work-from-homers, leaves kind of an eery feeling

Pros

Great people and collaborative, supportive environments in certain groups.

Cons

Some groups have better culture than others. Process experimentation was often utilized which is not a bad idea overall, but there was quite a bit of pain when management ignored feedback and went in a bad direction.
