Pros

Nice people, decent benefits. It's basically one of those places you work in between a job and a real career hence the title yob. My rating is low because of the staunch atmosphere and convoluted lack of transparency within the company structure.

Cons

No room to advance, unless you move laterally into a different position where you will basically do the same thing. Essentially, you stick to the same task for the entire day, and the performance standard is way too stressful for the kind of job it is.

Project based work, collaborative environment, Opportunities to work on software with immediate impact that provides company benefit for decades. Lots of movement, little stagnation. Learning and innovation encouraged. Telecommuting.

Cons

Project pace sometimes feels slow. Like many software jobs, support responsibilities cut into work-life balance.

Management needs to recognize great workers when they have them. Also, management needs to eliminate favoritism. Minimal advancement opportunities in the company.
