Pros

A challenging problem space with a lot of opportunity to develop interesting and complex problems. It is a company filled with great people with good ideas who have a passion for developing software. The compensation is good and competitive. The work life balance is excellent. Telecommuting is welcomed. Hours are flexible.

Cons

Infrequent on-call duty for operational support. Poor knowledge sharing within the company. Outdated platforms and technologies in use. Occasionally, the need arises for late night support work. The operational burden of owning software is a both a plus and a minus for the company.
