Pros

This is, hands down, the best company I've worked for. I've worked for a few others and interviewed at even more and MasterControl stands out above the rest. The company really cares and is constantly trying to improve. Upper Management is approachable and friendly. The culture is amazing. This is a very unique company who's product actually helps improve the world. Other Pros: - High trust environment - You receive appreciation and recognition for a job well done - Employee empowerment - Very understanding and flexible schedule - Fun company events and activities - Company condo's - Most of the benefits that "great companies to work for" offer, MasterControl offers - Fitibts for everyone - Fitbit challenges with great awards - Training budget - Fitness clubs - 40 hour work week - Work from home program - Sensible business model - Great new building - Free snacks - They really care about their employees and it shows - They invest a lot in their employees to help them be the best they can be in their careers

Cons

- There technically is a matching 401k, but to have the employer contribute, you'll need to pay part of your health insurance premium - Experience can vary by department, but overall they're all great to be a part of - If you're not self-motivated, your experience may vary - Some parts of the Software Development Process aren't as Agile as others (but it's improving quickly)

Decent company, outdated product

Pros

-Most of the people I dealt with were pleasant and hardworking. -Benefits are better than most places out there. -Company makes an effort to improve the office environment via fitness clubs and other types of fun activities. -Upper management is usually pretty transparent and approachable. -Company is modest in terms of its growth strategy which I found to be a breath of fresh air.

Cons

-The core product is buggy and outdated despite efforts to update the UI to a flashier new version. Attempts to have internal development teams fix bugs usually fell flat. Several senior team members left during my tenure due to a growing sense of frustration that upper management wasn't receptive to advice or critical feedback. - Most of the management team has been with the company for 15+ years which is both good and bad. While most of the management team was decent enough to work with, my direct report was not. There was a feeling amongst my team that my manager was 'untouchable' due to the amount of time he's invested. His overbearing and overly-critical management style is ultimately what pushed me out the door.

Pros

MasterControl is by far the best company I've ever worked for. They are truly invested in the success of each employee. The culture is collaborative and team oriented. They do a lot of fun events and activities. There is a great work/life balance in the most employee-centric environment I've worked in. It's awesome to see employees move up and around the company and the support of management behind it. The new building will be great as well! I LOVE the flexibility of the benefit allowance. Either 100% medical premium coverage or thousands for a 401K = awesome.

Cons

Any cons I could think of seem trivial when compared to other companies.
