Pros

Great atmosphere, a product which makes people's lives better, decent food nearby, music on Fridays, shorts in the office, we host and run meet-ups for the cream of the Bristol tech community.

Cons

The usual startup blues - our processes are still evolving and the legacy code is insane. The air conditioning blows (not in a good way) and the office walls clash with my beard.

Pros

Work life balance is awesome with flexible hours and work at home opportunities. Lots of vacation and sick time available as you stay longer.

Cons

Employees are not valued much in terms of salary, training, or promotions. I feel more like a resource or an employee number than I feel like a person who matters to the company.

Pros

Great people and team environment. They are willing to adapt new technologies to grow their software. Agile development means minimal time writing documents and planning features.

Cons

There is a fair amount of legacy code to maintain. The agile development process has its drawbacks as the minimal time allocated to planning typically means parts are unaccounted for in the estimation process; the implementation of any unaccounted parts is expected to be absorbed by the engineer, with no slack given on the schedule. This leads to long hours as developers catch up with unplanned work.
