Pros
I was on a great team with great people but no one ever stuck around more than a year or two. I grew and learned a lot but mostly due to the team members I was with. Had every other Friday off.
Cons
Most of the rules that were in place were simply damage control and poorly thought out principles that drove me and a lot of high quality talent out quickly. The environment that is created is one you won't be able to tell from the initial interview as they will promise you the world and describe amazing benefits which there really aren't any. The 401k is pathetic because most of the funds you contribute too take 1.78% which is absurd and their match is only 3%. Most of the dev practices in place are enough to make you wonder how they have even managed to survive as a company until you realize the clientele they have. They support a very outdated industry that struggles 30 years behind on technology but don't make much effort to actually get them up to speed leaving the sector up for grabs if any competent competitor wants sweep in. The biggest problem I would say with working here is how decisions are made. Most decisions made are behind closed doors that should incorporate the actual developers who make the software but the management completely changes the work environments and technology stacks based on the opinion of one or two which are the "favorites" in the endless sea of politics that is this small company.
