Pros

The people who work here - management and principle developers excluded - are great! Everyone is friendly and gets along well.

Cons

Management is horrible. The company is run like a family business. The CEO walks around the small office space talking very loudly on his cell phone, and a lot of these calls aren't even business related, such as calls to his family. Very unprofessional. It is very frustrating and very difficult to work in the loud environment. Also, if you are a developer, be prepared to use outdated technology - I'm talking working on projects involving SP 2007! Most of the code is unmanageable and extremely disorganized. Greystone also values billable hours, so you are "encouraged" to have as many billable hours as possible. If you are okay with making some sketchy ethical choices to make greystone money, then more power to you. Greystone managers push for code that gets the job done - so "patches" and bad conventions are okay. If you are considering working here, I would highly advise looking elsewhere. Management is oblivious to the problems of the company. It, overall, is just a dreary place to work.

Pros

Great company - get to work with exceptional people. The main focus of the company is to deliver excellent service and high quality products to clients. If you want to take a more challenging role out of your comfort zone then this is for you. Great opportunity to learn and grow as you'll have a chance to wear many hats.

Cons

Love this company can't think of anything negative. It provides great benefits, stocked kitchen with all kinds of healthy foods. It's a family friendly company and everyone treat each other with respect.

Pros

Company is focused on providing quality solutions to clients. Emphasis is on delivering value rather than making a profit. There is a good culture in terms of integrity. Collaborative environment. Good work life balance. The work is interesting and challenging and varied. Because this is a small company, people can be involved in all stages of projects. Most people work in multiple technologies, which for the right person is interesting and challenging. You can’t fall into a comfort zone of doing the same thing every day, but at the same time, you are never in a rut.

Cons

This work probably isn't for everyone; you need to be able to shift gears between multiple projects and technologies, and balance work on current projects with staying current on the technology.
