        Pros

        I haven't worked at many places, but the 8 years I spent in a company where I was just another number, proved to me that I was going to enjoy working here. I feel valued and that my work genuinely is appreciated by everyone within the business. Having a lunch area with a pool table, wiff waff table and darts board is definitely a pro.

        Cons

        I can't really say there are any cons, I haven't found one yet. Maybe one con is with the building and the lack of air conditioning during the recently scorching summer, but using the desk fans provided meant it wasn't completely unbearable.

        Appreciate the comments on air con - we have considered it. However, we all have different temperature preferences and the air-con units just cooled everyone down or no-one. Whilst not as effective, the desktop fans allow everyone to control their own personal temperature. The technical team is ON FIRE right now with the amount of agile development, tech training days and SCRUM methods.

        Any genuinely good way to answer the "biggest weakness" question without sounding like a cliche. Anyone have any good examples?

        I interview with this place about a week and a half ago. I think it went well and in the interview she said the next step would be a writing example, so I did that. Sent it to them the day it was due and haven't heard back since. She did say any next steps would be after thanksgiving since everyone was busy and their calendars full last week. I followed up on Monday with an email, but haven't heard back. Maybe it's taking awhile or should I try again end of week? I would at least like feedback.
