Pros

Strong positioning in many spaces of market-sectors they encompass. Respectable resources and asset base for improvements both internal and external

Cons

Short-sighted vision of dreadful middle management and a propensity to under utilize individuals talent or provide strongly defined career paths for people to grow. Very easy to remain stagnant in a career there.

Pros

Benefits were great, profit sharing, bonuses and decent pay, 3 weeks vacation to start. Colleagues were great... flexible environment.

Cons

No room for advancement, They rather hire contractors for lower development jobs then within. Still working on old code base ColdFusion, buying products they knowing nothing about or how it was developed. Trying to build an in house product with no clear direction. Soon as you start to get some, they purchase another company and everything stops and changes. There is are to much upper management that is just bloat. There is far to much red tape to do anything here.

Pros

NASDAQ is a well known brand, but when you peel back the onion there are some major dysfunctions at the management level.

Cons

Very lean organization. Work/life balance is better in some departments vs others
