Pluspunten
- More work/life balance than other companies - People are nice and helpful - Job is very stable - Career growth is guaranteed but slow and limited - NW Arkansas is a great place to raise a family - Company is well-recognized - Change is happening (i.e. ISD trying to be more of a techie friendly area)
Minpunten
Job: - Doesn't feel like a real software/IT shop: refurbished warehouse for a building, many people not interested interested in programming - Lower pay compared to other markets - 2 weeks of vacation until you work 5 years...then you get 1 more...just sad - Benefits are terrible - Technical grow is limited - Company says you can move within company after 1.5 years, but the change you will find a position you like is slim, if you can even find a position at all. - Going for a managed outcome model, not good for developers who want to code - Very slow to adopt standard tech practices like agile - Project process not streamlined - Change control process extremely painful (looking at you, Remedy 7) - Computer equipment given to us are usually on the cheap end Location: - Not for singles - Not for younger people who like to go out - Very conservative - A lot of natives here come from an agricultural background - Very expensive to fly in/out via XNA
