Pros

Work on the 9/80 work schedule which is pretty cool. Get to work on incredible projects and be a part of a great team. Decent job out of college that should help me in the future. Working alongside brilliant engineers. Not micromanaged at all. Very flexible work hours. I am treated like I have been working there for 10 years.

Cons

Very old school software development methodologies. Was told it would be a "fast, agile environment" but it is the complete opposite. Very process heavy. Tough for a new grad that was looking for a young atmosphere and collaboration between engineers. Pay is below average for software engineers out of school.
