Pros

Great pay, good people. Successful company. Very flexible. Very open culture with great internal communications system. Not averse to conflict, but communication is respectful. Willing to spend money when its needed. Truly agile, releasing every four months. Invest heavily in test automation.

Cons

Line managers follow archaic software development practices. Little unit testing, test driven development and paired programming. Many mediocre developers churn out reams of untested, buggy, bloated code, adding to old, complex, monolithic code base. Very slow and buggy build and test automation system makes development incredibly slow and painful. Senior people accept the status quo. Hiring process is slow and unreliable. Internal systems complex and fragmented.

Pros

Exciting and fast paced environment, growing and innovative organization. Leadership team is incredibly sharp, focused and a clear vision for growing an incredibly successful organization.

Cons

Work-life balance is very much on the low side. If you are a remote employee it is very difficult to feel a part of the company, even when making regular trips back to Indy. You miss out on the big selling point of being and ExactTarget employee - the Orange Culture.
