Pros

Amazing work-life balance, with great vacation and out time policies 100% work at home Friendly teammates Figure out the secret handshake and be promoted over and over

Cons

Awful health insurance with high premiums and barely any coverage A largely software company without technologically proficient leadership Chasing a software dream they can't catch with out-dated software products and piddly enhancements Over-promising and under-delivering to obtain clients Ignores suggestions from qualified employees Poor financial health Layoffs and expecting remaining employees to pick up the slack

Best Place I've Worked

Business Outlook

Pros

Lots of autonomy. 100% remote company with tons of flexibility in terms of scheduling and processes. (This could also be a con if you're not a self-starter and just want a checklist of tasks/tickets or are someone who craves face-to-face interaction.) Company culture is incredibly progressive. This is the only company I've worked for that paid more than just lip service to work life balance. It is super important and enforced from the top down. Benefits package is crazy good. They really care about doing right by their customers and employees. It is a very ethical place to work. Also an interesting place to work. Tackling big scaling problems with software going to market with tons of potential if executed well. They also value UX and design, if that's your thing. Great sales/service/financial leadership on the executive team.

Cons

It is a small privately owned company. CEO runs the place on her terms for better or worse. If you share her outlook and politics: great. If not: move along. These are words she'll tell you herself. Has the planning and organization issues you'd expect of a sales driven shop building software. Can get too caught up on process. Not enough engineers/product people on the executive team for a software company. Opacity of management's hiring and firing decisions can be frustrating. Lack of stability in team structures can take a heavy toll in engineering.
