Pros

Most of the developers and architects are friendly and very good at what they do. Not much going on in terms of office politics (though there is some). Management is OK.

Cons

Few exciting projects, lot's of very old legacy code, steep domain-specific learning curve. Not a particularly exciting or social atmosphere (speaking for my team anyways). Working space divided in pods, with about 10-12 people per pod.

Pros

Decent pay. Not much else.

Cons

No lunch break, no breaks in general, can’t go to the bathroom for hours on end, the managers’ daughter gets special treatment because her mother is in charge. Constant criticism and unfair treatment.
