Submit a Review"I love the technology and the concept. I am very proficient with the tools. Due to the nature of the job, you almost have to travel to participate in a good project."
"I love the challenge of development - every day there is a new problem to solve. I get to work with some of the smartest people around with some very interesting business. The hours can be long and the job very stressful - but I am well compensated and it is very fulfilling."
"I love being a developer to make peoples' lives easier."
"The field of a developer provides you vast opportunities to try new things at hand, and you can either make a web application, an android or iPhone application."
"Developing a useful and aesthetically pleasing application is a work of art in my opinion. Being able to create something from and idea is satisfactory. As a tester, I love to find a bug. In our current team we have in-team awards (candy) for testers if they find a bug in a program. Developers will be awarded if they produce a program with nearly no bugs when sent to the tester. This is one way to build our pride into our work."
"Excellent opportunities for learning, designing and solving problems that help improve peoples' lives."
"Development is an art form all of its own. Design, implementation, refactoring (programming for optimal maintenance and/or efficiency) and documentation are all potential areas for further refinement in our abilities and our accomplishments. There is no end to the challenges involved because its all about solving new problems."
"I love being a programmer, I could not imagine doing anything else with my life. When I get out of work I usually go home and program video games. Software is the future."
"I enjoy being a developer due to the creativity required to tackle challenges.I enjoy the problem solving and challenges faced. Each day is like solving a puzzle or riddle while getting paid to do so."
"Love to see it working, and I enjoy solving the problem. Dislike managers who mismanage, and interviewers who pidgeon-hole. Really wish I could do more exploratory/research positions with open-ended budgets."
"I love writing software, I love all the new technologies and frameworks that are available now, it is much easier to do web development that is quality based and user focused."

"Terrible experience. Executives have put the company in a downward spiral."
What do you like about working at Middlebury Interactive Languages?
"The immediate team is great. Most of the skilled workers in Provo know what they are doing."
Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?
"As much as this May sound like a rant/rave, it is very conservative. Reach out to members of the team you are considering to get their honest opinion (on LinkedIn maybe). The CEO is overly controlling and has an agenda that is not in line with advancing the company or it's products. The executives around her have little power and she will ultimately make the (bad) decisions. It is amazing to me how little executives know about their products. Carefully consider your options if considering MIL for employment."
What don't you like about working at Middlebury Interactive Languages?
"Non-technical/unskilled management/executives are often placed in positions by friends, so there are quite a few unqualified people you end up interacting with fairly regularly. Despite her resume, current CEO has no real language or technology background and is basically just a name (ex-politician) to help land deals. The executives are very good at publicly congratulating themselves for doing meaningless things both in company e-mails and public blogs. The number of inept, unmotivated and really worthless executives and upper management is absolutely staggering. Lots of fat to trim that will never be trimmed."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"Employees see incompetence and nepotism in the upper ranks. Start caring about the product, the clients and, most importantly, your employees. Moving operations to Middlebury, Vermont will absolutely be the downfall of this company. Removing the executives holding things back would be a great way to start making this a good place to work and would improve the quality of the product immensely (though the board would likely not make any changes)."
"I like programming, using my creative and problem solving skills and like developing new applications, Learning on different technologies, domain concepts and tools is another reason why I like development more. Having minimal access to SQL Server being a developer and deployer does not help, as it happened with my previous organization. Getting stuck to the same designation for more than 1-2 years does not interest me."
