Pros

Depending on who you work with there may be work life balance.

Cons

The company operates in a very niche space that thrived on banks acquiring distressed assets. This worked when the economy was in downturn but they have not been able to maintain clients and get new one's as the economy improves. So there are few opportunities for learning something marketable and to enhance one's personal resume. Whatever opportunities do exist are promptly shared, not on merit but favoritism as other reviews suggest. That also means reviews are a formality to justify ratings rather than to be used for development. For a 200 small company it is extremely bureaucratic and senior management does not communicate properly with each other resulting in multiple meetings at low level whose sole purpose is to get everyone on the same page over and over again. The VP of the biggest resource group believes that only top performers should be career coached. She used to famously say that in a group setting during reviews...that we should spend time coaching only the top performers who hold promise. As the product name suggests, technology is evolving all the time and that also works as a caveat for when technology does not work.
