Pros

Compensation, benefits, remote, location, ira

Cons

Absolutely no marketing strategy, it seems no one REALLY knows what they are doing from a marketing OR execution standpoint. Instead of proactive solutions there is only blame. Some people are nice. Most are drones.

Pros

Challenging work, constant pushing for perfection, good team culture (for the most part). Excellent work life balance.

Cons

Set in their ways and anything anyone says outside of it is laughed at. Ideas aren't taken into account unless upper management had it first. Set on using tech because "big people use it so it must be good." Below average pay Unwillingness to hire people Would rather stick to their "perfect beings" than expand it, thus causing little hiring, and bulk loads on developers. Guidance is "I want to use this technology cause Netflix uses it, figure out how." Not, "This is the challenge, find the best solution and why" Direct managers are good people, directors are caught in their own cloud.

Pros

interesting work, great co-workers. the average developer is a cut above many places i've worked. if a prospective employer reads this, then they should know that the TS staff is really smart and creative.

Cons

management was directionless often chasing a new gizmo while neglecting core functionality. they have a new ceo with whom i've worked - he's ok, but... one of the old-boys. we'll see how he does.
