Pros

you get to work on different types of projects, so you can learn a lot very quickly.

Cons

The only reason to work here is if you are in serious need for some experience. Even then you should only stay 3-6 months. The pay is terrible. You will probably be earning around minimum wage for all the work they have you do, so you might as well work at a fast-food restaurant if you are only in it for the money, at least there you will be paid for overtime, and trust me, there is a lot of overtime hours you will be working. Hostile environment. CEO yells a lot and throws stuff at the wall. Even though you are an intern, you are expected to have the same level of competency as someone who is more mid-level. there are no benefits except 3-4 vacation days a year.

Pros

I had not much going for me, and was given an opportunity to work here. The opportunities are open ended. So as hard as I work, I will be able to grow. It's really been incredible and the office is a pleasure to work.

Cons

It took us a while to get a refrigerator, so that made lunches more difficult. Now it's good though.

Pros

I worked at Emagid as a software engineer and I really enjoyed my time there. The CEO is a fun and easy going guy, but also very serious about business. It was a great work atmosphere that included company lunch, dinners, and outings. We worked a lot, but management had a good grip on the work / life balance. One of the best parts about working there was the diversity of the projects. I personally get bored with working on a single project over and over again. The CEO and sales team worked hard to bring in new projects all the time and everyone got work on a variety of projects. Every one on the team is good people and I still remain friends with them today. No one was hostile or stand offish and from the first week you feel like a part of the team. I recommend this company to anyone who doesn't mind working hard and having some fun in the process.

Cons

Sometimes business was booming and there were many projects, but this is not a bad thing as any engineer will tell you boredom is the death of an engineer's drive.
