Pros

They have a nice office space located in a cool neighborhood.

Cons

High turnover in dev. Their in-house PHP framework sucks, no one else uses it, and no one else has even heard of it. Your next employer is looking for someone with experience using Laravel, Symfony, or Zend, not "Reflexions Framework." Their clients are small businesses who are very very cheap. You will be timed down to the minute on how long you worked on this ticket or that ticket and the client will always say it took to long. The partners think they are Steve Jobs class technology magnates but they are very far from it.

Pros

Great team of knowledgeable people who respect one another and work together collaboratively to produce high quality products. Great work/life balance with flexible schedules. Spectacular company culture.

Cons

It would be nice if they paid for a higher percentage of our health benefits, but it’s still very reasonable

Pros

They are a small company the founders started in college. If you do good work you can grow and progress. Everyone is pretty cool and no egos to get in the way. No one stays late or. works weekends. They seem to hate that on a company level. Management gives you as much freedom as you want and doesn't look over your shoulder. The developers are all pretty smart and dedicated, with a few exceptions. The benefits are pretty good and so is the time off. You can work remote as much as you want even if it becomes disruptive.

Cons

The pay isn't up to industry standards. They will let people who have no experience as a project manager manage projects and the results reflect that. There are almost no processes in place and everyone codes however they like. Switching onto a project takes much longer than it should and you often have to spend a lot of time just figuring out what the other guy did. This happens a lot more than it should. Project assignments get shuffled more times than a deck of cards. There are no repercussions for those who do bad work or go over budget.
