Pros

They have some very bright, capable and great people working to keep the business going on a day to day basis. Pay and benefits are pretty decent. Work-life balance is good. If you're a developer needing experience, you can spend some time here for some pretty good experience in a dynamic environment.

Cons

Absolutely no strategic planning, implementation, or communication skills. There is a group of middle managers that have been there for a long time that are more concerned about keeping the status quo and looking important than driving the business forward. 'That is the way we've always done it here' is the mantra you'll hear all the time. If you're not one of the 'old timers' , you'l have no input and no voice. There is no professional development. There is no innovation or implementation of new technologies. A lack of standard processes leads to a constant last minute scramble in work priorities and scheduling. They have plenty of managers and directors, but lack leaders. This lack of foresight and leadership can and does lead to occasional layoffs. (Just recently as matter of fact.)

Pros

The company has a strong, collaborative culture where people are genuinely invested in doing high-quality work and supporting each other. There's a lot of exposure to interesting, complex projects, and you're trusted to own your work and make an impact. For anyone who wants to grow professionally, there's real opportunity here. High performers are recognized, and you're given the space to step up and expand your scope.

Cons

Work can be complex and fast paced but a great environment for people who enjoy challenging problems and making meaningful changes.

Pros

They'll mail you a box of popcorn and nuts around Xmas, sometimes.

Cons

Compensation is well below industry average and the benefits are just as bad — healthcare especially is expensive for what little you actually get. There is zero upward mobility. When someone leaves and a role opens up, they will hire externally every single time instead of promoting the people already doing the work. They run intentionally understaffed under the excuse of staying "lean," which just means the people there are overworked with unrealistic deadlines and no relief in sight. Micromanagement is a serious problem throughout the organization. My manager was passive-aggressive and toxic. One-on-ones were essentially monologues — you couldn't get a word in while they rambled about what the team should and shouldn't be doing. When something goes wrong, senior leadership is quick to point fingers downward. There is a clear pattern of blame being shifted onto individual contributors and mid-level managers to protect those at the top.
