Pros

Not many. Nice gym and decent benefits. Nice lake out there for you to walk your frustrations out around.

Cons

Supervisors treat you like you are little kid. They think they are smarter than everyone else for whatever reason. They stick you on a computer that has been someone elses before they left and it is barely suitable for a clerk to use. There is ZERO office space. Get used to sitting in one of those glass "economy space" work areas where you don't even have room to change your mind. Either that or you will share a one person sized office with another person. There are competing technologies in the same building. So you could walk down the hall and a person won't look or say hi to you because basically you are their enemy. You are developing new product to replace the old. He is still working on the old. They are still trying to sell the old while selling the new. Creates a very tense atmosphere for productivity. And the "new" is a mix and match of OLD legacy with new technology. It takes you 20 steps and holding your mouth right to be able to bring the app up on a developer machine. Don't reboot or you need to do it all over again. Somehow it's YOUR FAULT that you can't get something so hodge podge working. There are ping pong tables in the break areas. Great now how about removing the video cameras strategically placed to seemingly ENSURE the employees aren't abusing time there. You can't use technology to manage people guys. Everyone who started when I did is now GONE. It's obvious when they went private they laid off a lot of the older talent that was working there who knew a lot. The remaining management does not have the knowledge base. GET A CLUE!

Pros

You get to work with some very bright people. You have opportunities to work on small and large teams. This allows you to grow technically. There are opportunities to grow in your responsibilities which again benefits your career in the long run. The company is becoming more employee focused that it used to me. The benefits are okay (not great, but certainly not bad). They have a very nice gym on campus.

Cons

At times overtime is too much and senior level management seemed out of touch. Seems they reap the rewards whereas the worker bees got nothing. Your responsibilities can grow but not rewarded very much. You can easily become a work-aholic.

Pros

Intergraph has some strong technical people that are very good to work with. It is also located in in Huntsville, AL which has a very low cost of living with a relativley high technical compensation. There are a lot of other technical companies in the area.

Cons

There was more management dysnfuction that appears to be at other companies. There have been a lot of changes recently in organization which may have contributed. I saw more confrontation than team work. It also seemed to be losing some its of technology culture and becoming less exciting. Attempts to make the company more profitable have maybe hit morale more that it should (cutbacks in some places, hiring in others). This happens, but it probably needs to be handled better.
