      Pros

      Great experience for interns and good first job to learn about the software engineering process.

      Cons

      They have been growing for a number of years and were focused on whatever it took to make money. They are finally beginning to focus on managing the internal business. It's just very slow going!!!!!!

      Average pay, but some of the best benefits and amenities around.

      Pros

      Friendly, outgoing coworkers, for the most part. Excellent health insurance, 401k, stock purchase plan, and other benefits. Very health-conscious environment where activity is highly encouraged and supported. Excellent amenities such as a cafeteria, a Starbucks, a parking garage, a workout room, and locker rooms.

      Cons

      The company seems to be meeting-heavy, and decisions take longer than they should.

      Pros

      Relaxed and friendly work environment. Not a bad place to start work and get experience. Potential to work on some consumer products.

      Cons

      Severally under pay compared to the rest of the market. Lack of upward job mobility. Not a work place that rewards monetarily.
