Pros

Beautiful campus – semi-rural, trees and rocks all about. Great benefits, health care is company-subsidized, generous profit-sharing, 401K matching, good coffee in the break rooms! Commitment to work-life balance. Positive, friendly, enthusiastic atmosphere. Exciting to work for the Microsoft of GIS.

Cons

The biggest Mom and Pop store in the world, maybe. A private company lives by the quirks of its leaders. Work can be interrupted for CEO's urgent projects. Directors are given lots of leeway, which can lead to little fiefdoms with their own idiosyncratic practices and woe is you if you don't mesh with management. Takes forever to fire someone though, which can be good or bad.

Pros

Great benefits, friendly coworkers, interesting work that keeps you engaged. Esri campus is a great atmosphere to work in. IT resources are fantastic, very easy to acquire the little things that make work easier.

Cons

Few opportunities to grow within the company. Wage stagnates once you start, annual raises barely keep pace with inflation. Mature and experienced developers also means few new development techniques and technologies are used.
