Pros

Co-workers, snacks, easy drive, location

Cons

You will be doing overtime and they don't thank or pay you for it. I had one of the worst leads. During my first week on a new project after training, I asked my "lead" for clarification on a task I was assigned, and she said "I'm working at a higher level than you, figure it out. Again, this was my first week. This same lead would send me text at 9 pm or later for things that could have been done the next day. There was no work-life balance just work. She did not even know how to work with the software they assigned us. She only got the job because the last lead left because they were underpaying him. HR is useless. They only go off of what your lead says. You don't even do software development, you use outdated software to automate other outdated software. All you do is click and drag, trust me after a while it gets redundant. They only thing I liked was my co-workers. Most if not all stayed just to get experience on their resumes.

Pros

I got paid what they offered me.

Cons

Buys small companies in the U.S. then sends the work overseas and lays off the U.S. employees. As part of that strategy, they make unrealistic margin and growth requirements. Changed employee benefits (health plans) mid-year without notification to a more costly program including the reset of extremely high deductible (lost all previous deductible expenses). Non-remarkable benefits: No 401K matching, costly benefits, no profit sharing, meager vacation time, etc. Offers to support career and performance growth, and accomplishment of goals and objectives, but the offers never materialize.
