Pros

Paycheck cleared as you would expect.

Cons

Few competent people in the business now. Those who remain are bitter, and prone to finger pointing. Software development is largely outsourced. Problem solving skills were absent when projects were in trouble.

Pros

Not much reason to work here unless you have nothing else

Cons

Hundreds of longtime, devoted employees were let go during the last year, only to be replaced by cheap and mostly worthless Indian offshore contractors. CTO is generally clueless, but is a real talker who loves to throw buzzwords around on topics he knows nothing about.

Pros

Fellow employees want to work and laugh, enjoy working together. Team effort to get job done

Cons

Management is terrible. there is no leadership. The company is continuing to make bad choices, they do not fill empty positions for months on end, keep adding to existing workloads, and do not listen. DO NOT WORK HERE. I gave it 5 years and it is so inefficient as a company it will drive you crazy. Not to mention our website for clients crashes once a week. You use 20 year old software systems to help clients. So clunky! I will leave once I have a job offer. I am looking.
