Pros: Well-organized training form. Good pantry. Fresh food and free coffee. Fast-paced working style is pretty Wall Street style. Expanding firm.

Cons: Some fields touch really old Fortran code, and most of the positions have very limited opportunity to face clients.

Pros: Great people, interesting projects, good career path flexibility, nice office, amazing benefits, excellent training and personal growth opportunities.

Cons: Some teams have to deal with legacy code.

Pros: The culture is work-hard, play-hard, with much thought put toward philanthropy and the environment. These altruistic goals really come from the top-down. There are great snacks and a great office/environment. A lot of smart people are present all across the board. The location is convenient. Great connections throughout the city are due to the CEO being a former mayor. There are lots of educational opportunities outside of the field, such as financial training for R&D folks and technical training for business folks. Payment is offered for further education. Sports teams are available to play on. Great healthcare and a great 50% match on 401k are provided, along with generous pay raises and bonuses. An awesome training program exists for fresh-out-of-college hires. It is 12 weeks long and has fantastic instructors for advanced C++ and JavaScript, plus a lot more. Great networking opportunities are also included. It is really well run. The whole company works like clockwork, from facilities to help desk to sales to software to the data warehouse. Quite impressive.

Cons: A lot of proprietary software development tools. A lot of customers don't like change. Customers are paying a steep price, and thus often have a stronger say than they should.
