Pros

I really enjoyed that Tyler Technologies was so open to new ideas. They were willing to try and implement the best ones. This gave me a lot of freedom, but it did have to live in the confines of "outside the regular sprint cycle". I was able to improve processes, decrease the need for support, and use new technologies. They are expanding their product selection and I felt a good balance between supporting, updating/refreshing, and green-fielding software. The work-home life balance is excellent. I can recall nearly every one of the few times I had to burn the midnight oil more than I wanted to personally. There are career opportunities to be had, but you have to actively seek them out, push for them, and follow up.

Cons

There are some legacy (under very active development) systems Tyler still uses. Interfacing with, or using, COBOL can be a challenge. Employees should be aggressive during their reviews to show what they've done warrants a pay increase. The company is frugal, but not cheap.

Pros

BCBS insurance/decent benefits. Good amount of PTO (4 weeks to start, holidays, and 2 floating holidays). WFH M/F and as needed. Solid company so job stability is good as well, which is important in this economy. Flexible in terms of appointments and schedules. Room for growth in your position. Most of mid-level management are kind and open to listening to you.

Cons

Definitely underpays compared to the industry standard across the board. Promises more money is coming year after year, but never delivers - senior management is the roadblock here - may not be the case for all departments though. Promotion does not always equal significant/decent pay raise. No sick days - lumped in with PTO instead. However, you can WFH when sick/as needed. Recently changed health insurance to no longer cover diagnostic testing/bloodwork at 100%, so you may get hit with a couple hundred dollar bill.
