Pros

Xactware takes care of their employees, with great company parties, a family like environment, and they really want you to succeed. Insurace is awesome.

Cons

They pay far below the industry standard, and their raises are 1-2%. I was told I was one of the top performers in my reviews, had a great annual review, and still ended up with less than a 1% raise. They try to supplement with rumored generous bonuses, but bonuses are never guaranteed, and raises and opportunities for advancement are not where they should be. Not clear career paths, very hard to move up.

Pros

- Good benefits - Secure positions (they don't fire people to trim the budget) - Excellent facilities - Flexible work-from-home policy in most departments (as long as you aren't abusing it) - Fun activities for the whole family (I'm a fan of the movie nights on the lawn)

Cons

- Management is moving backward, not forward. - Promotions are given based on who you are friends with. - There is a severe lack of diversity especially in management. - Once they have made up their minds, senior management won't listen to concerns or suggestions. But they don't give you a chance to express your concerns or suggestions before they make up their minds. - There is a lack of communication across departments. People are duplicating work because no one is talking to their counterparts in the rest of the company. - The product release is driven by development. This might be a pro if you are a developer. But for marketing, sales, implementation, QA, documentation, training, and support, it is a pain in the neck. The company doesn't look good if you are learning about a product feature for the first time when a customer asks you a question about it.
