Pros

Small company and friendly co-workers

Cons

Company not well established and senior management not sure how to handle tough situations or make business decisions. Company is trying to establish itself in the clinical trial arena without developing a strong foundation. Employee benefits are poor and the company is not flexible about working remotely or vacation.

Pros

No shortage of projects, busy environment which means the markets they are in are growing. I think developers try to do the right thing most of the time but the clock is always ticking. Luckily, there are some long time employees that can step in and rescue projects.

Cons

Communication across teams working on projects can be improved, some groups are always late with their deliverables to engineering but never put in the hours like engineering when they are falling behind on their work. Immature technology organization but improving - all manual testing, no unit testing, etc. When ideas for improvement in these areas and others are proposed by new employees, they get resistance. All software is built on a proprietary framework making development harder than it needs to be at times, which can be frustrating. This framework is limited in its capabilities, poorly documented, and has some other warts.
