      Almost Heaven

      Pros

      Beautiful campus – semi-rural, trees and rocks all about. Great benefits, health care is company-subsidized, generous profit-sharing, 401K matching, good coffee in the break rooms! Commitment to work-life balance. Positive, friendly, enthusiastic atmosphere. Exciting to work for the Microsoft of GIS.

      Cons

      The biggest Mom and Pop store in the world, maybe. A private company lives by the quirks of its leaders. Work can be interrupted for CEO's urgent projects. Directors are given lots of leeway, which can lead to little fiefdoms with their own idiosyncratic practices and woe is you if you don't mesh with management. Takes forever to fire someone though, which can be good or bad.

      Pros

      Paid health benefits Everyone is paid by the hour so you can supplement your pay by padding your timesheet

      Cons

      Low Pay Draconian HR Dept - once you are on their "hit" list, you will be let go Favoritism rules at ESRI If you know the right people you are protected, whether you work hard or not No career path Pay increases are across the board not based on merit, usually under 5% No mentoring or coaching by Dept leads
