Pros

- Great company - Great people - Great pay - Work life balance is absolutely the best - Equipment is top of the line and just about anything you request (if non-standard) will be accomodated

Cons

- Technology sucks. QBO uses dojo -- a dead (or dying) JS library for building UI. Backend is written in Java and in the middle is node. The skills you learn are NOT going to be useful at other companies. - No diversity in engineering. Few women, few ethnicities (other than Indian), little thought diversity - Reliance on contractors - Total pay is very good due to bonus/stock grants but base could be better - Cafeteria's food is 50/50. 50% of the time it's good. 50% of the time it's terrible

Pros

Amazing benefits and good people

Cons

Culture has shifted drastically. The expectation now is do more for less. What used to be above and beyond is now just achieving expectations. You're expected to absorb the work of everyone let go. You do 4 peoples' jobs, but the concept of promotions or pay raises is out of the question. Trust from customers and employees toward leaders is completely broken. The only prosperity being powered is the prosperity of shareholders and investors.
