Pros
The people here are all fairly smart, there is no dress code, and they provide a free fitness center. Overall this is one of the best places to work in the area.
Cons
There is not much room for advancement within the team, but I think this is offset by the opportunities that open within other departments.
Advice to Senior Management
Always directly relate the work an employee is assigned to the overall goals of the company and its customers. Provide challenging assignments.
Pros
Pool party, events, mostly competent coworkers, pleasant interaction with management and easy access to senior management. Easy to make your voice heard.
Cons
The benefits were somewhat low, especially compared to what some of my classmates earned at their internships, I made less than half of what others did.
Advice to Senior Management
Increase the intern salary some and provide a little more meaningful work. It's still a relatively trivial expense compared to a full-time salary and higher intern salaries give bragging rights for the student and the company.
Pros
As an intern, I was given a lot of freedom in my work. When I needed help my team members we available to sit down with me and help me through my problems. Very friendly environment. Annual pool party at CEO's house and other such events.
Cons
Most employees are from really small colleges. They are very good at their jobs but they would be average elsewhere.
Advice to Senior Management
Keep doing what you're doing.
Pros
Career Opportunities, solid product and market foundation, great vision from CEO, exciting place to work, good benefits package and vacation time
Cons
Poor leadership from exec team, limited decision-making abilities (left to executive team), poor salary, and little to no raise for promotions
Advice to Senior Management
Pay your employees the salary they deserve; if you promote someone for doing a great job, provide more visibility into future vision; get input from employees before making big decisions or changes in organization, structure, and processes
Pros
No dress code, fitness center, great benefits
Cons
Often work long hours, training is minimal
Advice to Senior Management
Training should be better and more thorough
Pros
The company is an extremely cool place to work. It has unbelievable technology and gives its employees the opportunity to gain all sorts of marketable skills. The executive leadership is among the best in the technology industry. You get the sense that employees really matter and that the company is run by people with a true sense of ethics.
Cons
Most positions require that you live in Indianapolis

Cons

Advice to Senior Management
this company has great product line and there is a big future waiting. i just wish this place had more development office toward the west coast, CA/WA, too where the weather great.
Pros
Stability, low turn over, work independently,

Many employees have been at the company since it was founded. That's great if you are one of the chosen few, if not, don't expect to ever get close to the corporate decision making process.
Advice to Senior Management
Improve communication among functional areas. Run the company more like a business rather than a country club.
