Pros

The product itself is a bold divergence from conventional approaches in the enterprise. Salary and benefits are ok. Hours are flexible, and people are generally affable, usually pleasant to work with, and some of the engineers are bright and stimulating to talk with.

Cons

The product is a bold approach, but not very exciting. All but one of the founders, and all of the first and second wave of engineers moved on years ago, leaving the product in a barely maintainable state. The few who remain, and the third wave of recruits, are mostly B and C players attempting to turn around 7 years of poor design and poorer implementation. Every day brings another three-alarm fire where some crucial account is having an issue with basic functionality of the product.

Pros

I came in as a freshmen in college and didn't know much about the work and definitely learned a lot and got up to speed quickly enough to make an impact with my project. People are very willing to help you learn. The CTO is a very fun person and held a lot of intern events. Rock band breaks during work! Very flexible hours.

Cons

My project was not very relevant to what the company was working on. My supervisors were frequently unavailable when I was stuck.
