Pros

a) It's mostly software company thus software developers are treated as first class citizens which is not that common for NYC; b) Competitive benefits (base + bonus, 401K, medical, etc) c) Great life-work balance (flexible schedule, 20 work days vacation, 20 sick leaves, work from home, etc) d) Broad range of projects and architectures - client/server, unix, windows, mobile, Java, C, C++, C#

Cons

1) As in most of NY companies - work environment, lots of people, can be noisy, some distractions; 2) Management can do a better job - sometimes too tough on person and schedule, some problems in listening to developer and understanding his/her position
