Pros

- Work/life balance (Company encourages work/life balance. Employees have an option to telecommute whenever necessary.) - Compensation & Benefits (salaries are very competitive with industry standards. Profit sharing or Bonus provides additional benefits. ESPP is offered to provide employees a discount on the company stocks) - Vacation policy (one of the best vacation policies. employees get anywhere between 4-6 weeks of vacation per year. the max out rate for vacation is very high.) - Strong management (this is not a company where organizational changes happen often. If organizational changes do happen, it is done for a good cause and employees are not left dissatisfied by it)

Cons

- Little career growth opportunities (The company's structured such that there are not that many tiers in the organization structure.) - Very little training/development or educational resources made available (company doesn't offer many educational/training options to employees and is very restrictive in paying towards education/training) - Recognition and Rewards are rare (while recognition and rewards is largely dependant on management, company doesn't encourage all managers to follow this technique to boost employee morale) - Team building efforts are not strongly practised (some teams have team building efforts like once in a 3-6 month period. most teams don't have any team building efforts.)

Pros

Good company, great team. Would have been better, if they were working on different technologies.

Cons

Nothing much here. Management should have a long-term vision. No additional perks apart from salary.
