Pros

Good people, fair compensation.

Great chance for professional project development.

As a software engineer, it doesn't matter what your specialty is. Whether C++, Java, Perl, or PHP, you may have a chance to use them all.

Cons

Occasional lack of clear direction from management.

Potential lack of long-term career opportunities.

Advice to Management

Be more honest and upfront.

If you can't pay us more, that's understandable as long as other forms of compensation are on the table.

Glass doors are different from glass ceilings.
