Pros

Location is near Broadway shops - you'll need time to escape from this place.

Cons

- bullying practices and micro-managers led to the voluntary departure of 5 people; - Toxic culture - no incentive to work harder - winning work but no one can deliver due to over project management - overdominant sense of feminism and LGBTI advocacy led to people forming clicks and engaging in anti-social behaviour Do not work for them. -passive aggressive communication (ALL THE TIME) I hope this company fails

Pros

Incredibly smart development and service people.

Cons

Management was sometimes disconnected from workforce, and more often disconnected from customer needs and the products they wanted.

Pros

You get to work with the latest Microsoft technology, and all facets thereof. You can work from home occasionally. They mandate that you obtain Microsoft certification in your speciality. They provide MSDN membership for technical staff. You are paid for scheduled on-call rotation, but given time-off-in-lieu instead of overtime pay. There is no waiting in line in the womens bathroom. Ever.

Cons

This is the worst place I have ever seen for women in technology. They have a very complex environment yet provide no training in how to use it (sink or swim mentality). You are not allowed to ask many questions. The culture is do "what is right for the company" not "what is right for the customer". You should never expect your manager to have your back, unless you are one of the boys. They mandate that you obtain Microsoft certification so they can achieve a corporate discount. Training is to be done on your own time. Your expected availability is 24x7x365 (mobile phone and laptop provided). Their inner team culture is one of competition rather than cooperation. If an improvement suggestion comes from the wrong person, it is ignored.
