Pros

The company is growing rapidly yet the work is very stable. I never worry about being laid off. They've managed to maintain a great work-life balance. Management is fairly hands-off when it comes to specific implementation of software - but you will be expected to implement bad features if the client is willing to pay for it. I rarely spend time in meetings and I pretty much have the whole day to program. The company is building an internal knowledge base which is proving extremely helpful when understanding the idiosyncrasies of the software we make (Odyssey).

Cons

Very outdated technology and the product suite is chock full of bugs because management never says no to client demands. New leadership has pledged to cut down on custom development, I hope they stick to it. Dozens of attempts to refactor and modernize pop up but they never produce any meaningful change. This is because the capable developers are always pulled away to salvage some go-live for a new client - which you know, is caused by the fact the system is so massive, complicated, and buggy. The company *is* actually very nice to work for. There's a very low turnover and the leadership knows this. So expect to be paid less than your peers.

Pros

Great Company to work for! Stable, caring and dedicated to Public Sector.

Cons

Sometimes faster change would be beneficial, but thorough consideration is what makes it stable, which is a plus!

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.
