Pros

* Responsibility : Been here for less than a year, and I am working on a high impact project for which I am the only one responsible. This is the place for people who like ownership and responsibility. * Learning : Whenever I talk to my manager and my peers, I learn something new. This maybe because I am the new guy, but one thing for sure is that there are knowledgeable and helpful people around me. * Culture : Technocratic world. If you have knowledge it will be respected. Work life balance is very good. * Boss : My boss guides me both technically and through the managerial aspects and he is technically too sound. His boss guides him and me and he is also technically super awesome. * Activities : Book Clubs, Monday football, table tennis are some of the weekly activities

Cons

* Canteen is not that good. * No place for leisure activities. * Work from home is not an option

Pros

Very friendly , employee loving company. People believe in doing the right thing - even if it is time consuming. Good work life balance. Training is very much part of work - and learning is encouraged.

Cons

For just a software developer - the pay seems to be a little lower than below average - but I guess the other perks like bonuses, profit sharing - would make up for that. Sometimes can be very relaxed ...

Pros

Very laid back work environment. Great location. Great benefits. You get to work with very smart people

Cons

Compensation is way below the market standard. Coupled with the living expenses here in Boston, you aren't going to save much. Too many meetings. This leads to slow decision making and also a lot of time wasted. Development processes are not very professional. There is hardly any documentation on internal tools. They expect you to just 'know' how to use things. Some times it feels like you are trying to break into an already established group of friends and are finding it hard to get all the inside jokes. Lack of consistency in coding standards/practices across the company.
