Pros

You get to work with not only incredibly smart people, but incredibly caring and passionate people. The pay is phenomenal and the work is fun to do on a day-to-day basis. As a software developer I get to collaborate with my team on things I design and things they design. We implement alongside each other and we test each others work and we have fun doing cool things. The food here is amazing and I can't imagine anywhere else having this high quality of food from coffee carts through lunch.

Cons

You become an expert in development languages that aren't being used by anyone else in the 'tech industry', so your experience does fall behind professionally in that respect. However, your ability to think algorithmically and be an intelligent computer scientist is not hindered.

Pros

- Meaningful and challenging work. - They are constantly growing so there is always room for career advancement within the company. - Excellent benefits (especially their health insurance). - Very competitive compensation comparing to other large software companies in Seattle and Northern California. Keep in mind that the living cost in Madison is a lot cheaper though.

Cons

- Madison is not a very exciting city. Its winter also is really tough. - Working with old/out-dated technology like VB6 and Cache. - Work/life balance can be worse depending on your team/team lead.
