Great if you're young and single

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good place to learn cutting-edge technologies.

Cons

Lack of documentation makes it difficult to understand a lot of the product concepts. You should be comfortable with securities trading terminology. Bonuses are not paid in cash, but in company stock which does not fully vest for several years.

Management in Richardson is Disfunctional and Plantation Doesn't Know It

Software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Friendly colleagues on site and in Plantation;

Cons

Pay is poor (so lots of turnover as good people move on). Benefits are uncompetitive. Facilities are squalid. Senior management in Richardson is one of the founders of the three constituent firms who is grandfathered in but well past his sell-by date.
