Pros

Knowledgeable colleagues. Opportunities to work on challenging problems in different applications and variety of software technologies. Some international exposure. Relatively small company with well established place (albeit narrow) /role in the financial domain. Attempts to adopt to the current market conditions. On a separate note: the company might be a potential acquisition target.

Cons

The efforts to position in the current economic environment lead to wild restructuring events that appear to be random in nature. Good software engineers leave the company. The emphasis is on the new management with the hope that they are "the men". Unfortunately the past 3 years do not promise much in this respect. The company strategy is to keep its place in the financial industry (revenue generator) and to penetrate additional verticals. It is questionable that the company's software products and cloud based systems and services will produce the expected results.

Working for FICO

Pros

Good relationships with bosses and project managers. Work schedule is flexible. Lots of trust placed on consultants. Collaboration is encouraged with team members. Personal growth in terms of experiences is very high.

Cons

FICO does not compensate valuable employees well. Many employees feel used by FICO but stay on because work is rewarding. Management makes decisions about staffing without consulting with people on the ground. Projects are constantly handicapped by lack of resources. High turnover of employees is becoming noticeable.
