Great place to work

Pros

I love the folks I work with, they are passionate and truly dig what they do and it shows. I have a nice work-life balance and the overall compensation package is good with a very solid base pay. Make sure you come in where you want to be from a salary standpoint because the supporting benefits are just average. I feel challenged which is huge for me and working with such sharp folks (I can only speak for my team) is inspiring.

Cons

Despite the many pros, there are entire divisions that are bottlenecked by old-guard who have simply lost their fire, become antiquated, and only care about keeping their job because no successful company would bring them on at the level they are at now. Unfortunately this is the case nearly all of the way up to the top so I fear some are here to stay for awhile.

Headed in the right direction

Pros

After a painful merger, and weeding out underperformers, this company is moving in the right direction. Most new hires are competent, intelligent, and good to work with, as are many of the remaining employees. With a full suite of products to support higher education, there is a place in the company for anyone who wants to build, sell, and support great software.

Cons

Old guard is not completely gone yet, and is still pretty strong in some areas. Benefits are below average for a tech company.

Pros

This is a great place to learn alongside very talented people.

Cons

With stagnant compensation, minimal training, constant management reorganizations, and some random layoffs, this can be a very stressful environment. This is definitely not a place to work for a long time.
