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.
