Pros

You get to learn a lot of new things, like new programming luggage, project management skill, even another foreign language. Work and life balance is good. It's good for family driven people, since working hours can be really flexible here. BTW, I am still new, so this is just based my first year experience. I will update,if I find anything new.

Cons

Some work is tedious and repetitive. If you like doing the same thing over and over years, this is the right place. And also FICO tends to prefer people of using their own products to process data ,which is not efficient compared to the popular tools on market. Benefit is average level. You do not get anything special.

Pros

The Transaction Analytics team in San Diego is a mature group with a lot of smart people. There was opportunity to work on several interesting projects. The work - life balance was good. Management generally gave people opportunities to work on different things to help you grow as a scientist. The group is continuing to evolve internal processes to adopt more Big Data technologies, although the current development stack is not there.

Cons

Compensation is only average. Limited growth opportunities unless you make a significant contribution (e.g. patent / brand new process).

Pros

Fico offers a wide variety of different technologies to work with and learn from as Fico has its hands in a vast array of different fields.

Cons

There are no raises and the annual bonus pool is a bit of a joke. Training is all self guided and you will frequently be asked to work with things that you have no experience and be expected to figure things out as you go.
