Pros

A great place for technically driven people.

Cons

The company has the worst IT department I've seen. It is split into two major camps: engineering and professional services. The two sides are at odds constantly.

Advice to Management

Let the ghost of Daniel Lewin find peace finally. The idolization is weird.
