Pros

As a developer you are given significant freedom to develop and provide input on the process. The developer is given more individual responsibility than at most development shops. The benefit plan is competitive. Nice people to work with.

Cons

This is a software development shop with a large complex code base. It provides a significant challenge for software developers. A significant amount of classic ASP still exists in the code base.

Pros

Great for college grads to learn from. Learn as much as you can and then get out. This place is a dead end job as many. Harness your skillset and leave. But prepare to put in long hours!

Cons

The owner is a one man shop . There is one org chart, the owner, below sits everyone else. You are expected to work long hours, if you are a member of the 42:30 club then you are nothing. You are considered a warrior if you stay late. Completing job assignments is just not enough, if you just sit there after 5:30 pm you are considered a hero. Since you are putting the hours in, playing online poker or video games as long as you are in front of a monitor screen you should be golden and will mostlikely be promoted. One of the worst management of people I've seen. People working in factories probably are treated better. This company tries to be hip by offering free sodas, the benefits are bad to average. PTO don't even think about asking for vacation, you are considered an enemy for asking and will be personally attacked for just thinking of vacation. You are also not allowed to have a personal life, no work life balance. Do not dare to have outside activities, the company IS your sole purpose. If you want to work for a place that treats you like you are sub human and insult you and blame you for management's decision, please apply.

Pros

I have been at this company for a few years now and yes there are some challenges and hurdles that we have to deal with. But I work with really smart, driven teammates who understand that we are in the software business and in order to be successful, we have to all pull together for our efforts to work. For this size company, they offer excellent benefits and alot of nice perks, like bonuses, free lunches, parties.

Cons

the company has an aggressive timetable for product delivery and sometimes we never know what the immediate priority really is. Better communication between teams and management is needed.
