Business Outlook

Pros

Smart and fun coworkers in a laid back working environment. People tend to approach things in a very logical and rational way. Geek humor is prevalent throughought the company. The employee amenities are excellent - individual offices, decent cafeteria, snacks and drinks, and fun company outings.

Cons

Not a lot of room for serious career advancement, and the algorithmic compensation structure does not encourage heroic efforts. Natick is a sleepy town for young professionals.
