Good Work Environment

Pros

Ann Arbor location makes an effort to foster a fun and engaging environment. Casual atmosphere, and approachable project leads are nice. Great for entry-level employees, plenty of opportunities to learn.

Cons

Senior management seems to be a bit illusive (except for CEO). Some practices seem questionable at that level. No 401k match, no increase in PTO for employees that have been with the company longer. Wages aren't very competitive. Limited opportunities for growth.

Amazing developer-centric culture

Pros

100% US based technology services company with a real respect for true Agile development, nurturing technology "athletes" as they call them, and sharing that expertise with colleagues and clients. People here tell me that they are really impressed with the calibre and generosity of the directors who run the various technology and client practices. New CEO and Chief Delivery Officer have really increased the transparency and process orientation of the company. Benefits program rewards people who look after their health.

Cons

Starting salaries for junior developers are not top of market, but in fairness this reflects an expectation that the company is going to invest a LOT in training and developing both technical and soft skills in your first couple years on the job. People can double their salaries fairly quickly if they are keen to learn.

Pros

Free Pop and Popcorn., Able to play ping pong and video games on a wii at work.to

Cons

I worked there almost a year. No matter what your skill set, They are going to put you wherever they want. It is an agile shop. Which they live breathe and eat. This means that the projects are bidded on with a skeleton staff in mind. Meaning, you can play on working overtime. My first project really had no chance, but because we were a talented group we did get it done (BARELY). We were promised a bonus in the one meeting, before working all the extra hours. (100 hours of overtime) Yeah we got our bonus, it was going out to dinner. Not exactly what we expected. They have a bunch of young coders. A few experienced and good ones. They have allot of turnover at the company. Not many people have been there longer than 2 yrs. I would not reccommened working here. One of the head hunters I was working with before taking this job, told me in advance what to expect going to work for Nexient (AKA Systems In Motion). He was 100% accurate.
