Pros

Some good restaurants in walking distance.

Cons

Eyefinity has a very hierarchical structure consisting of a handful of golden boys whom others treat as though they can do no wrong even as their offhand opinions add months of needless complexity to your projects without adding any real value. It has managers plying weird and worthless management fads, and gleefully inflicting petty acts of vengeance on the best people there until their victims finally get fed up and quit (and no, I don't mean me -- but I did see it happen personally). The software release processes are baroque and onerous "so we won't accidentally break something", but that doesn't prevent others from accidentally breaking things for you -- welcome to your emergency today! The result is a gig worthy of that hypothetical unfortunate who likes cleaning up after someone else's disaster but doesn't enjoy the risks and low pay associated with being a literal fire-fighter. Your time is spent doing production support and disaster management, in addition to perhaps 20% maintenance. If there are any real development projects going on they'll be outsourced. You'll get to manage those mishaps too if they make it to production, but the good news is that many of those projects are such catastrophes that they'll never see the light of day. The same managers who can't lead you in a development effort can't lead a contracting team either, even if they did have the good sense not to hire the same failed teams over and over again, which they don't. Is it all bad, doom and gloom, stay away at any cost? Well, if you have other options, run, don't walk to Dice.com or your favorite tech job board and exercise them. On the other hand, if you're about to loose your house or something, you could probably stand it for a year if your expectations are low enough.

Pros

I worked at Eyefinity for fours years. It was an outstanding learning opportunity for me and do not regret my time spent there. I was proud to work for VSP. There were some really great people in the lower ranks with a diverse set of backgrounds. Great fun.

Cons

Management was manipulative. Termination practices were inhumane. The software product was always bad, doesn't sound like it's improved. There was a significant trust factor with management. Sorry to hear things haven't changed.

Pros

Ability to advance to other family of companies

Cons

Management and product. The company is ridiculously top heavy, and leadership is inept.
