Pros

- Excellent benefits (401k matching, discounts with major companies, free portfolio mgmt, etc..) - Great if you want a job that is laid back - A lot of flexibility to move laterally

Cons

- Salaries are not competitive - Boss had very little power in giving reasonable raises because of "company policy" - The work is not as challenging as it could be - Lots of red tape when you wish to use software that is not on the company list of "compliant" software - Business casual dress code forced on software engineers is never a good idea

Pros

Benefits including profit sharing and bonuses are great. The breadth of this company provides a great opportunity to try out different career paths or boost your current one.

Cons

In my current role, I am working overtime more often than I'd like with recognition that seems to only go so far until it sizzles out. That may be tied to the size of the company itself, where promotions work in a "trickle down" manner.
