Pros: Willing to teach, good place to start career.

Cons: I cannot think of any cons.

Pros: Ultra-casual dress, free lunch, smart colleagues.

Cons: Little support for families with kids, no flextime, no telecommuting, expectation of long hours. In technology, a marked tendency to stick with the firm's idiosyncratic practices.

Pros: Competitive salary and benefits Relaxed work environment (can wear jeans for example) Work with very intelligent people Can use a variety of technologies, whatever is best suited Challenging and fun work with a rapid development flow Little micro management Privately owned so not a lot of bureaucracy

Cons: 50 hour work week (45 in office) Lacks a good tuition reimbursement program, existing one is inadequate Little room for growth and additional responsibility regardless of glowing performance reviews Also work with very incompetent people The catered lunches are pretty awful Very opaque senior management Poor communication between teams which creates redundancy and a lack of ownership No code reviews Working at home greatly discouraged
