Pros

High pay - lots of non-essential perks.

Cons

Too many "awards"... lack of balance between home and work. Software development environment is like a typical game developer: run developer ragged and don't use professional developers (get 'em young, train 'em, use 'em, toss 'em). Company forbids employees with less than 5 years (most) to tell customer how many years they've been with company. Very political environment: president forces people out if they upset her.
