Pros

-Nice location on Centennial Campus. -401K matching is great. -Free beer once a week. -Free food and pop in the kitchen. -The company culture is low pressure and a very relaxed working environment. -Employees are not expected to work more than 40 hours a week and often get away with less.

Cons

-Teams move at the pace of the slowest members. -Salaries are low compared to similar positions in the area. -Revenue growth has slowed for the 4th straight year. -The sales team doesn't have the tools to fight the competition and can't be expected to hit targets. -Lack of original ideas and products. Every new product feature is a "me too" feature and playing catch up. -High employee turnover and unhappiness. The employee surveys are a joke. -Most of the management team, including the president, have no prior experience with educators.

Pros

Lots of natural light in the office. If you want a place to show up and do less than challenging work on a daily basis, this is the place for you. That is the job security factor. Fresh fruit once a week and the unoriginal usual offering of chips, soda, candy, coffee stuff plus the equally unoriginal beer/wine once a week thing.

Cons

Everything about it is lackluster, out dated and stale; the "culture", technology, innovation and reoccurring "struggles" of the company as a whole. Management has no clue how to mindfully engage much less walk the walk the expect of others. Drones for the most part. Advancement? Unless this is your first job, don't expect to be compensated (annual reviews are subjective; the review "formula" for rating is kept hidden from employees) nor find a path to higher career success. Purse-strings for annual "bonus" are pulled tight and equally as subjective. There are none with no where for a person with any experience to go in this company.
