Pros
Remote work opportunities and flexible schedules. Very nice co-workers, low-stress environment. Interesting software niche in the electrical contracting industry.
Cons
ConEst's flagship products, IntelliBid and SureCount, have a dated and tired look. They are still Windows desktop applications in a world where web-based cloud solutions rule. The technology is quite old and the current owners don't seem to want to invest much in updating these pivotal products. It's a shame because there is a ton of excellent business logic wrapped within, like a superhero trapped in an old man's body. If you have a passion for the development and improvement of software products, you will likely be disappointed here. I think that as long as customers keep renewing and the cash keeps rolling in, the owners will keep milking these cash cows, to the point of death.
