Pros

Separate sick days and vacation days.

Cons

Health benefits - Expect to pay $1600 a month for what other employers deduct for < $500 You will have a future of career suicide by supporting technologies over 17 years old. Terms will be thrown-around like "agile" and "micro-services" without any real understanding or discipline being used and bandied-around to meet political goals. You will have the pleasure of entering a world of "keep things running" mentality while supporting decades-old software, while any inquiry of improving or re-writing key legacy systems will be responded with the "well, yes. it needs to be re-written . But it's not in the budget. perhaps in the next b budget." (This gets old after 6 or so years.) I cannot stress enough: stay away! IT management is all about perpetuating the lies told to the board of directors, covering up significant problems, and keeping the lights on so management can reap their bonuses. No matter how hard you work, you will never see any reward: this company loves management only, since the people who actually work are forgotten and disregarded.

Pros

Gained a lot of experience Met some cool people

Cons

Management at chapel hill location is not good. They have hire turnover for this reason (15 people in a little over a years time) They do not proactively hire to help with the turnover and you will be overworked on the mean time Not much room for growth due to small company
