Pros

Nice selection of technologies.

Very smart people – these folks know their stuff from a technological point of view.

Decent amount of development work.

Several of the developers I'd consider friends.

Pay is good.

Cons

Very long hours, nights and weekends.

Each release was a catastrophe, every single week.

Clique-ish – if you weren't in the in-crowd, you got the shaft and were eventually let go. It didn't matter how your performance was.

Advice to Management

Work-life balance was almost non-existent for some folks. Please stop the death march approach. It doesn't work, and this is not a startup.
