Pros

Freedom to do what you want as long as you get your work done

Cons

Worsening health benefits each year, low pay, awards plastered all over the office from a decade ago, code that's been touched by multiple people prior to you with poor documentation. I think the most embarrassing thing was going on a job interview and having the interviewer pull up an article about a client who was considering to terminate their contract.

Farragut Systems Response

I am sorry that you feel that your experience at Farragut was poor enough to make this post. At Farragut, we do have an open door policy and would have been open and receptive to your feedback at any time during your 3-yr tenure here; in fact, we would still welcome your feedback should you desire to contact us now that you are no longer employed by the company. I will address the comments about our employee benefits: Farragut prides itself on maintaining a benefits package which is competitive in the market. We work with a local insurance broker who handles hundreds of clients. From the feedback which we have received from that brokerage firm, as well as reports about companies in the RTP area, our benefits package is comparable to (or better than) most companies in the area. We have been told that our health plan premiums are the lowest of our broker's clients. Additionally, Farragut pays 75-80% of the premium for employees and their dependents.

Pay below industry and location average, no clearly defined Career progression path, immature product and project management, poor product/release planning, quality of product suffers due to scope/schedule mismanagement, nobody ever fired for poor quality work or management, management allowed to bully others even with multiple HR complaints from different employees, mandatory "improvement" classes such as 7 Habits, etc

Pros

good for non-engineers to start their careers in software development company and learn programming with a decent salary

Cons

Severely Micro-managed, the management and developer ratio is 1:2, no long term vision, only looking to sustain the current business with less focus on growth. Under utilized resources and bad resource management.
