      Pros

      Good pay and benefits, some flexibility around schedules, a lot of smart people with a drive to do their best and contribute. Business is growing even in a down economy.

      Cons

      Micromanagement from the top down. No real structure. Priorities are set based on constantly trying to navigate the founders' changing mood. They do deliver for partners and customers, but its always done the hard way.

      Pros

      The engineers are incredibly smart and great to work with.

      Cons

      If you're looking for a fun startup, Bold Penguin is no longer that company. Over the last couple of years they have brought in new senior management from large enterprise companies (mainly Accenture). They have shifted us away from a fast and agile company to one that is very slow and enterprise-like.
