Pros

Plenty of work to be done and the products you work on will be used by hundreds of people. In the Columbia area, many jobs are government so if you are a foreigner MICROS offers an alternative for employment. Just hope that your spouse works somewhere else to have enough money to pay the bills

Cons

Utterly horrific work environment. Prominent personnel leave weekly. The primary FOH developer, the primary BOH developer, a few good testers, and even the CFO have all left within a month, around the time I left. With no documented descriptions of how anything works, how much longer can this place survive? And product documentation? There is only one tech writer for this near-billion-dollar company. Pathetic. This is not like any other tech place in the world because you must work 8-5 with a lunch that must be from 12-1. This is highly inconvenient for people with kids or the need for different schedules. The managers here understand that the schedule is ridiculous but all are too cowardly to raise the point with the CEO. Truly they pay 15-20% under the average for the area, and when my husband recently interviewed in the area the other employers and recruiters knew about MICROS reputation for being a crappy place to work and underpaying. Weekends are always on the table and you often have to work them. There is no hope for a raise, only one direction as a career path to positions you don't want, and they will keep you two positions below your actual value anyway.

Pros

Great products. MICROS had the best Point-of-Sale system in the market. Technical staff was top notch. Good company to work for.

Cons

No uniform structure from district office to district office. Focused more on sales. Lack of formal training for no sales staff
