Pros

- Great culture - Wear what you want, some flexibility in hours, campus is gorgeous - Lots of independence - Everybody's young (it's a pro if you are too) - Tasty food

Cons

- Long hours, high expectations - Working 60+ hours is the norm for many - burnout is common - High level of self-motivation and self-direction is essential - Team placement seems arbitrary - Business-majors working on the database, people with ambulatory backgrounds working on inpatient, etc - Middle management varies in quality - The company promotes those who are good at their jobs, but this does not necessarily mean they will make good managers

Pros

Pay is good & the campus is cool. That is about it.

Cons

Outdated technologies used, no future growth prospect coming out of the company Bad bad bad legacy code, and that too in VB6 ! No/minor pay increases. Perhaps one of the highest turnovers in an IT company, I found seeing people leaving the team left and right quite depressing. No hierarchy, senior developers become developers but there is need for principals and people who can drive the system design. They are not cool with WFH and do not provide/let you use a laptop ! Location is not the best - it snows way too much in Wisconsin but then that's personal preference. No smoking/drinking in campus, I don't smoke but making it a taboo is somewhat naive I feel.

Pros

Campus in Verona is awesome The 401(k) match is nice. The casual environment is great for new grads. "Green" company

Cons

There is no such thing as a "work / life" balance. 45 - 50 hour weeks. Seemingly on call 24 / 7.
