Pros

The pay is somewhat competitive. The building is located in a nice area of Camarillo. The lower management are very helpful and passionate about their jobs. The benefits are good.

Cons

Management looks the other way when the client or subcontractor bullies employees. Complaints are rarely reviewed and action doesn't really get taken. The client has full control over all direction, resources, processes, and participants. Developers work on multiple projects but rarely together. Communication is poor. Very little time is spent developing applications. Most time is spent towards participating in meetings, sometimes about other meetings. People are put into positions they are not qualified for. There is favoritism with specific employees. There are multiple unreasonable constraints on development, such as performing development against databases that are behind numerous firewalls, causing development to take at least 10 times the norm. The tools are poor. Technology is about 5 years behind the curve.
