Pros

The people and culture for the overall company is great. Downtown Raleigh headquarters is a great place to be. Mission is awesome.

Cons

In some departments management prefers to manually fix stuff that could be automated, meaning that we spin our wheels on stuff that could easily be handled better.

Pros

You have a lot of freedom to choose what things to do. New technology pushed to you in super speed rate. Multiple time zone teams which really allows to run constant development. You can actually fix something , hand the bug over at the afternoon and get the next step when you wake up in the morning,

Cons

Dead lines are virtually not existent for the common developers. Yes you work long hours but not because anybody makes you. Too many timezones on the same project.
