Pros

Good reputation. Even better employees who want to deliver great products to great customers. Customer focus is key. Open minded culture with employees that challenge each other to be better Building innovative solutions that work is satisfying

Must figure some things out for yourself (HR mostly, not necessarily a bad thing) Benefits (PTO & 401K) are eroding slowly and may not match industry standard No more Christmas Parties (Seriously, why?)

Pros

I think the pay is good enough compare to current economic downturn.

Cons

Avoid OFF-SITE group. The manager rarely shows up at work place or participate in day to day development. But, having a few people in the team who act as KGB and report to him. So, your values depend on how well you appease his puppets. That is how they define TEAM WORK :)
