Pros

They'll hire just about anybody if they can make a decent resume and interview fairly well. AKA, it's a foot in the door for people early in their career. The office is comfortable and dog-friendly. Game room is a plus.

Cons

The people are generally nice but very cliquey. Terrible benefits. No 401k, no matching, no unlimited PTO, and really just no benefits that are common to the tech world. You'll get 5k deductible health insurance, that's it. Terrible pay, but hey, it's a place to get your feet wet. Expect about 50-75% the going salary for your position. The tech is pretty stagnant. It's a custom built PHP framework sitting atop a LAMP stack. They're not really trying to break the mold with new web technologies.

A good place to get your feet wet in Tech

Pros

Lots of fun people, the holiday parties were a blast, lunches were provided several times a month, and they are really into the idea of letting you find your place within the company. Also, foosball. All in all, it was a valuable experience.

Cons

In my department leadership was very poor and didn't seem to know anything about how to properly manage projects. Things would be regularly pushed back, and often it seemed to be a case of "biting off more than you can chew". Not all departments seemed to be this way, though. Also, many of the younger employees are very very very clique-ish and there's a big hookup culture. If you're more than a couple years out of college, you might not fit in well.

Pros

A Relaxed work atmosphere. Okay with letting employees smoke up on the job. No dress code or corporate red tape. You can bring your dog into work.

Cons

Just about everything else. The pay is way too low. Management is based on seniority, not skill at managing or administration. It's disorganized. And there were more obnoxious co-workers than not, it seemed to me. I don't get the 5 star reviews. It makes me think the people leaving those ratings had terrible past jobs. That's the only way Booj could look that good in comparison. Unless you're desperate for a job, I'd look somewhere else.
