      great place to work

      Senior software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      You will be judged by your overall performance at the end of the year. If you contribute a lot, you will get a large bonus; a little, and you will get a small or no bonus. You won't get credit for attendance. Company's commitment to work/life balance is not rhetoric.

      Cons

      Lots of emails, distractions. Lots of overhead to ship product. Will move bigger, more important mountains, but will not move them as quickly. If a small company environment is what you crave, this is not the place for you.

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Easy access. Freedom to work as you see fit.

      Cons

      Frustrating code to debug, since so many individuals have had a hand in the construction, without any over arching design configuration.
