Much better place to work for Software Developer than most organizations.

Software developer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good learning - something new to learn every day. Good management - easy to communicate with higher management and business. Salaries/Bonuses/Healthcare/Incentives - among the best in the country. Very beautiful office - this definitely counts in liking your job. Opportunities for fast growth. 20 vacation days - much better than many companies.

Cons

Hectic - need to slog sometimes. Some legacy code to be dealt with at times - but this depends on team. No cubicles - just desk - makes it hard for personal matters like checking your emails, answering personal calls. And your manager, his manager, his manger - all eyes on you. Manhattan => commuting time is high.

Business Outlook

Pros

The company is fast paced, forward thinking (when the right people are in place), and never dull.

Cons

The company pays too much homage to tenured staff as they view them as loyal. Unfortunately, tenure also equals nepotism. Too many 'bloombots' are still in positions of authority.
