Keep away!!!

Pros

If you really want to live in Texas.

Cons

1. They keep hiring people, but also keep firing people. People are trying to leave this company consistently. For this size of a company (100 employees), every week you hear new (young, innocent) staff is coming or someone is leaving or getting fired. And you don't even know why those people are getting fired - they are doing pretty good. The logic of any vista company is to hire new guys at really low price (that's why some of the senior positions still cannot be filled for more than a year), and then they treat them very bad, see them as deposable items. They fired a lot of experienced people to keep the cost down, fire random managers when the company finance look bad, or fire anyone who has different opinions. They fired all the experienced developers who was with the company for more than 10 years to save money. They fired at least 6 managers so far for no reason. Significant amount of people chose to leave here within their 1 year of service. Oh they just fired the CEO recently after his one year at Mitratech. 2. Very very low pay. Much lower than the market. But they are expecting you do much more. Just stay away, you are much better than that. look good, then sell the company to another investor at a good price, despite of the business model cannot last after it is sold because of the quality of the software. They want immediate results, near sighted, never think about long run results. And they lie, never take their words seriously!! 4. Not much career growth for most people. Well, I bet you want to leave the company after you spend several months there anyway. 5. Management again. A lot of department leaders lack of the capacities and even the understanding of their business. They cannot make a good decision. And the decision making process is not transparent; they always want to hide something. And they don't want to communicate. They really need to respect people. They don't want to listen to you. 6. The work culture. A lot of young people, so can be fun sometimes, also a little immature. That's fine but the most important thing is that not much trust among the team. They want to shift blames and play too much politics.

Unstable environment

Pros

Most of the rank and file are reasonably decent people. Engineering seems to know what it is doing but is overworked. Too many problems with the old product.

Cons

Management has no idea what it is doing. Their only goal is to kiss up to the private equity company that owns Mitratech. Every move is made looking over their shoulder. Constant changes result in an unstable environment. The only way to keep your job is to kiss up to management. Doing a good job is not enough. In fact doing a good job is not even a prerequisite to keeping your job. Just kiss up to senior management.
