      Relatively low stress, good work/life balance but frequent changes in company direction.

      Pros

      Awesome manager and co-workers, great work/life balance, super flexible hours. Raises and bonuses readily available if you work for it.

      Cons

      Frequent changes to overall company direction and how employee performance evaluations are conducted. General lack of communication across departments. Some positions in the company do not have clear paths of promotion or are limited. Company is sometimes plagued by indecision or decision making by committees.

      It could be lots of fun but also frustrating.

      Pros

      Good benefits, cool space, nice perks, lots of opportunity to learn old and new technology and solve tough problems. Nice that I had flex schedule.

      Cons

      Top-down management. A select few people need to approve every decision and ambitious employees generally get frustrated because of micromanagement. Lead engineers can be cocky and rude and like to take all the credit rather than letting team members shine. (My team manager won an award for the work we did and never even thanked his team members when he was recognized.)

      Good intentions, but you can find better.

      Pros

      Fun environment, things are always changing, you're always on your toes.

      Cons

      Big Fish has gotten too big and has forgotten how to take care of its employees. You won't find the compensation you're looking for here. It's only ~500 employees after the recent cuts, but they need a lesson in generosity.
