Pros

Knowledgeable and trusting management. Supervisors listen to their workers, and are willing to try employees' ideas when it comes to suggestion as to what may help workers do their jobs better. Management are very friendly and understanding when dealing with employees' concerns. Company provides opportunities for employees to make use of his/her unique skills and interests. So, workers have some influence/input as to what types of projects they take on. Office is clean and comfortable.

Cons

Schedule for full-time in-house workers is rigid (a typical "9-5" 40hr work week). Salary is acceptable, but lower than it could be.

Pros

Hal Leonard has some great products, and good pay and benefits. The work for a Web software developer there is fun, but challenging. The coworkers are fun and smart.

Cons

Software process and tools are hilariously backwards. CVS, FTP, no automated testing or deployment, and all homebrewed tools for issue tracking and publishing leave a lot to be desired. Insurance and benefits unnecessarily complex. No process improvement, any new ideas seen as a threat.
