Pros

1. Very stable, consistently increasing business for the last 8 years 2. Many opportunities to work on something interesting 3. Working with a lot of nice and intelligent people

Cons

1. So so health plan: both wife and ex have a better plan than mine 2. Whomever wrote about the Intuit mafia in another comment here is right. 16 people got hired from Intuit in the last 6 months, and, it seems mostly for management positions. 3. Newer management in question doesn't really understand our business, and doesn't listen to old timers. They often act like they understand and know more about the platform than us. 4. Newer management makes a lot of ill conceived decisions that are discouraging real talents, thus increasing loss of tribal knowledge.

Pros

- Many opportunities to learn new things, trainings, conferences - Diverse technology also encourages people to learn and master new skills - Good benefits - Talented people - Friendly atmosphere

Cons

- Company carries the baggage from 10-15 years ago: departmental silos, IT vs Dev, slow to react to new technologies - sub-par management on all levels: micromanagement, lack of transparency, say one thing-do something else, favoritism, personal preferences - talented employees were forced out because they didn't submit to their poorly performing superiors

Pros

If you're a gamer, tons of free stuff and access to things that are interesting to you. If you're not a gamer... well...

Cons

Technology, network and features are so far behind the competition and management can't figure out how to capitalize on a huge PlayStation audience that is willing to pay for quality.
