Pros

Some good technology, they're in a good space and leveraging their strengths in a very competitve arena.

Cons

Very "box" centric, not solution centric. They always seem in a rush to close a big deal focused around the product, but not as focused on defining the overall solution to be delivered in conjunction with services. Services often takes a back seat to the sales team.

Pros

- Free coffee and soda - Nice campus with walking path - Generally relaxed atmosphere - "Unlimited" sick time (it's complicated) - 401k matching and stock purchase plan are offered

Cons

- The company operates like a bunch of "separate fiefdoms". - Teams do not collaborate with each other. - The company runs on Excel and Oracle solutions internally - "islands of information" is an understatement. - IT controls the tools and is completely out of touch with current technology. - Promotions are non-existent. - Ambition is not recognized.
