Pros

Pay has gotten much better and standardized for programming positions within the last few years. Benefits are good, including an ESOP that usually does really well in year-to-year growth. The company has a lot of good things for people who want to make a career there, including a heath center, daycare, and an ESOP that can be a huge chunk of your retirement if you stay for a few years. Other pros include: Good gyms, street hockey, and basketball during breaks Onsite cafe Hybrid WFH rules are generally up to each manager, and many are willing to figure a system that works for both the team and worker. Good location right off I-89

Cons

There was a lot of resistance to modernize both company policies (Only recently did they dilettante between different levels of Software Engineer, post-Covid return-to-office was a huge push until they reversed course) and the tech stack (a majority of the programmers on one half of the company are working in RPG). While there are efforts to modernize their web tech, the distributor side has continued to lag behind industry standards to a worrying degree. Other minor cons include: Cubicles (I did not mind them, but others might)

Thank you so much for taking the time to provide this feedback. Regarding in-office work, we find our employees’ physical presence in the office to be an extremely valuable part of our culture and an asset to optimal learning and communication. We certainly respect those who prefer to work remotely, and to that end we continue to offer hybrid work schedules so that employees can work remotely part-time if they so choose. While we are happy to offer this flexibility on a part-time basis, we feel it's very difficult to completely replicate the energy of in-person meetings, the comradery of team building activities and the “accidental learning” that all come from working alongside your teammates in the office. Given the company’s philosophy, and with respect to the needs of our employees, we feel that the hybrid model offers the best of both worlds.
