Pros

Great benefits Great location Nice offices -Great for entry level folks...if you want a company to FULLY fund your masters degree or anything Solers is the place to be b/c they will pay 100% tuition for you. spend a few years there and then get out...(with a master's under your belt.)

Cons

Very poor management...they have 25 yr olds running the show there that came straight from college....upper management doesn't seem to see what the big picture is...its bad b/c they could really use some better experienced managers there and just have much better system all around....very poor performance review system...they should watch out because they hold employees to metrics that are not communicated up front....if they fire someone they could have a law suit waiting to happen - They low ball your salary when they hire you b/c they try and leverage their benefits...the bonuses each quarter are a joke, so don't hold your breath on that one...dont forget to subtract 35% off the bonus for taxes..sucks -its a small company so they dont have a lot of options if one project isnt a good fit.. -

Pros

- The pay and bonuses are great. - Benefits are pretty good. - 23 Days PTO. - Automatic 10% 401k contribution, 100% vested from day 1. - Stock options. - Casual dress allowed.

Cons

- Promotions are based on your tenure with the company and have nothing to do with any other kind of merit. - Management is only interested in bringing in contracts without regard to timelines and feasibility thus leading to overpromising and under-delivering. There is no vision. - Management withholds information from employees regarding current and future work/contracts. - No room for career growth. You are expected to do as you are told and where you are told to do it. - Feedback comes from the top down. There are no peer evaluations, nor is there a way to provide upward feedback. - Lackadaisical workforce. People only stay here to collect fat paychecks. - No telecommuting. - Technology company that doesn't invest in any technology. Employees have to purchase their own monitors if they want a dual monitor set up, and may also have to purchase the video card to support it. - Company provides software engineers with old desktops but managers with nice laptops.
