Pros

Generally, there is a feeling of goodwill among coworkers. The campus looks nice, too.

Cons

I always felt micromanaged. You have to log what you do every day down to the nearest quarter-hour. Which not only means that you have to figure out how much time you worked on each of the dozen things you do in a day, but your boss also berates you if you take a little longer than he or she expects. His or her expectations always seem to be too high, since they are based on how long it would take him or her to do it. Also, there doesn't seem to be much in the way of career opportunities. The languages used by this company are hardly used by anyone else.

Pros

Good pay comparing the cost of living at Madison Subsidized food Beautiful campus

Cons

The technologies used here are very outdated (Visual Basic 6, Microsoft deprecated this long back), Mumps DB (put simply it is storing data into global variables, Oops! can you imagine that !?). The management is very disorganized. You will be rated based on the number of hours and number of lines of code you write. Despite bad technologies, the code base is completely messed up. The issues you solve will make your developer life a living hell. No clues about what is happening and why it is happening in the code. If you are a person who is passionate about coding and software development, please don't join this company!
