"I like writing code, determining the best way to accomplish a series of tasks. I like the cooperation between coders who are working on different aspects of the same system. I enjoy writing specifications (don't laugh, I do!). I like the hours. I like the fact that I can do my job from any location that supports a high speed internet connection to my workplace."

"Long hours, work is unrelated to any college degree earned, random drug testing even for salaried workers, management style is to divert all responsibility to the lowest level but also remain constantly informed such that the credit can be claimed on the occasion something is successful, raises were based on a curve instead of actual performance - that curve was based on manager's favorites rather than contribution: plus it caps anyway."
