Pros

A good start for non-CS students towards a software engineer.

Cons

This company lays off most new hires and withdraw many offers due to financial problems this week. The amount of severance package is 3 weeks's payment.

Pros

MicroStrategy hires some really, really smart people. There is a huge potential for learning if you're the kind of person to seek it- you really have to want to learn stuff and ask a bunch of questions but the knowledge base is there and is, for the most part, friendly and willing to educate. Of course, I'm sure that's based on what department you wind up in as some positions are pretty isolating and you end up working on your own.

Cons

MSTR is fantastic at seeing the 3-5 year picture but has a really hard time sticking to a plan for the current and the next quarter. I really feel that MSTR would be fantastic if they went back to being a private company, but they butt heads with what investors want quite frequently because they have amazing vision but aren't the type to sit around and wait for it to be executed while making small, calculated steps that minimize risk to investors.
