"I like programming, and being a programmer lets me do that."
"I genuinely enjoy what I do but it would be nice to be compensated for the additional projects I work on that are outside of my job responsibilities."
"No regrets by being a programmer, learned a lot."
"I hate if previous programmers have created a code without comments, and the next programmer have to spend more time in understanding the code. I love software programming and learning new API and technologies which will give me boost in my career."
"I just love my job especial in Info. Technology."
"At the higher levels of being a University software developer (which is where you probably work if your job title is Applications Programmer 4) you do get to take on a higher-level, more architecture-oriented view on projects. As such, it can be significantly more satisfying than more junior developer positions, which often leave one feeling more like a cog in a machine. However, with greater visibility comes greater exposure to University politics."

"AT&T good. Few ppl a pain, they weren't directly with the company, I could deal with 'em."
What do you like about working at AT&T?
"I love AT&T... I love the people at AT&T."
Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?
"Work for AT&T... don't work for a contracting company that works for AT&T (especially Farley), unless they get rid of the manager they have. So unless you are single without children, or a man either who doesn't have children or doesn't care about having to choose a job over your child, don't work for them."
What don't you like about working at AT&T?
"There were some people who weren't pleasant to work with. But I could deal with them, because most of the people that I worked with were. My boss was not great. He and I had a horrible relationship that blew up at the end."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"Get new management (middle management)... with contractors. I worked for a man who told me that I had to choose between my job and my child. That wasn't at AT&T, it was at Farley Technologies, a company that contracted to work with AT&T. I would suggest not to hire Farley back, or for Farley to get a new manager."

What don't you like about working at Sun Gro Horticulture?
"They are closing the Bellevue, WA IT and Finance office due to acquisitions and merge of functions."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"Management is not listening to suggestions at this time. It was probably a mistake to shelve the software that lets them analyze future budgets, sales broke down in many ways, including by salesperson, warehouse and SKU, and the product quality reporting system."
