Great People!

Programmer

Recommend

Business Outlook

Pros

Professional relationships, special events, people oriented management, family oriented company. Facility and location. Individual recognition through award "ceremonies." Little perks like food (new product) tasting.

Cons

Very difficult for programmers to stay abreast with current industry technologies -- Old software development technologies and practices. Almost total lack of training in that regard.
