Pros
The leadership at this company has every level of experience you can imagine. Large company, small company, federal, state, local, educational, carrier, and enterprise. These guys are LEGIT! I get to work along side some of the most intelligent people I have ever met and the connections these guys have are beyond impressive. Cutting edge projects lead by industry thought leaders. If you get a chance to work at 5thColumn, the only thing I have to say is congratulations and welcome aboard!
Kontras
The ultra high paced environment can be a bit overwhelming at times and management is ultra demanding on staff for both engineering and development. They expect the best you have to offer and if you cannot make the grade, you will be dismissed or left behind quickly.
