Pros

FICO has far more going for it than credit scores. It is a leader in predictive analytics, and participates in a wide range of related markets. This means a lot of really interesting products and projects. FICO draws really smart and engaged people. It is a hard-working place, but very "grown-up" with strong respect for life outside of work.

Cons

FICO's offices are very dispersed geographically, with three in California alone. Project teams are frequently spread across the globe, which means lots of conference calls, and some demand for travel, although that might be seen as a plus. The wide range of activity across markets and products means that getting extended attention from senior executives can be challenging, although the flip-side of that can be lots of autonomy.

Pros

#1 - Smart innovative people you will constantly learn from #2 - Enjoy that my job even after 14 years is still interesting because FICO is always evolving and trying to stay ahead of our competition so my project work is always changing keeping my job fresh #3 - If you want a challenging career and an impressive resume -- WORK here (there will be no need to add any fluff to your resume afterwards) #4 - Professional development opportunities (our internal FICO University has over 88K on-line learning assets to educate you on just about any FICO solution, business or technical topic) and we have 5K that you can spend each year towards certifications or degrees that support your job) #5 - Did I mention our stock price? It's almost doubled in a year. And it's going to keep going up because we have some of the best innovators in the world working at FICO and people that are up to solving the challenges of tomorrow. #6 -- We're on the bleeding edge of predictive analytics so if you're interested in developing solutions that will make the world a better place and also offer you some job security -- look no further.

Cons

We're not a simple company with 10 products so trying to get up to speed on FICO and navigate our structure can be a bit daunting initially for new employees.
