Business Outlook

Pros

Very flexible on working from home, especially in software development. Flexibility when necessary on the job. The company will make sure you have tools you need to your job (i.e. sending you an android and iPhone to test apps on them, multiple monitors, etc.). Very innovative company. Pay is fine given the position. Management seems down to earth and I've felt above average as far as being comfortable talking to my boss and other management is concerned

Cons

I can't think of any right now

Nice place to maybe start out for your career so you know what to look for in your next companies so you don't end up working for one like this again.
