Pros: Relatively low entry bar as far as software developer experience. It was a fun place to work. Uses web-based software development technologies.

Cons: Their COVID response was bad. They at first tried to deny it was an issue and instructed TLs to lie to us about it. They allowed us to work from home for a bit, then tried to force us back into the office. They required us to give them medical information to continue to let us work from home, before the county health department told them not to. They were trying to redefine working remotely as working in the office with remote technologies. Following all this, they started restricting certain employee areas that used to have some amount of self-expression. They began purging the details for ex-employees. All of this was likely part of an anti-unionization push, which also resulted in the combining of teams.

Pros: Good salary in the mid-west US. Very good health insurance. Beautiful campus. Individual offices. Good work-life balance, with occasional overwork.

Cons: Not as many vacation or holiday days compared to other technical companies. Outdated techniques used.

Pros: Solving problems that need creative solutions

Cons: Long hours are not uncommon.
