Pros

Subsidized lunches Unlimited vacation Week between Christmas and new years is a holiday for all employees

Cons

Pay is significantly lower than other software companies in Charlotte for the same work Perks like the bowling alley/tennis/basketball courts go unused because everyone is overworked Mostly college hires and young adults so the turnover is high. Most people leave in under two years All timelines they make for engineers are arbitrary but are not treated like such. A lot of people work 9-7 to get all the work demanded done and there is no real work life balance. Good number of people do the "boomerang". Work there for a year or so then leave and come back for more pay.

Pros

Strong ownership, opportunity to manage people early, great people, nice campus. You will work on interesting problems and external companies. Great training if the space interests you.

Cons

Business future is uncertain, up or out management principles. New senior leaders somewhat disconnected from the day-to-day. Commute from Charlotte is horrible.
