Good for learning but limited to that

Business Outlook

Pros

Good work environment to pick up and learn software development in an industrial setting. Focus on learning and improving your skills and you will have a bright future.

Cons

Management could do a lot better. Internal transfers are not easy to come. People in middle management might impede your transfers and make you feel stuck. I know this from a number of sources. Promotions are slow and appraisals are peanuts if you compare to competitors.

Good experience, bad work environment

Developer

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Exposure to large enterprise software. Getting exposure to such a big operation shows you what is possible, and shows you how much it takes to run such a big company.

Cons

Poor office culture and camaraderie. People sit in cubes and do not collaborate much. This could have just been my team, but the old office style was not for me. Often it could feel like you are not making an impact since you are a small piece of a big machine.

Your manager has all the power.

Business Outlook

Pros

Relaxed work environment, very smart people, cool projects. Most people are very knowledgeable in their domain and can be great mentors.

Cons

Your manager is in complete control of your experience as an employee. If he/she doesn’t like you, you will have an awful time and there is no point in going to your skip manager or HR, they will do nothing. Managers can also make your experience an awesome one; this is a double edged sword.
