Pros

Doing good. We are changing the whole medical industry and eventually saving US healthcare a ton of money.

It is a great and healthy atmosphere. Laid-back, friendly people, flexible hours, good compensation (especially for people with little experience).

Cons

Not many growth opportunities. You do not learn programming languages used elsewhere, so most skills you learn before your first year cannot be applied much towards other jobs.

Advice to Management

For employees to be happy, you should make them stronger and increase their personal worth by teaching them things, even if those things are not immediately useful to the company. By increasing an employee's value, you make the company a more attractive place to work at. If employees feel they are growing career-wise, they will feel happier being here, rather than feeling they are stuck here because their skills are not easily portable.
