If there's any sharp Software Engineers in the Chicago, IL area looking for a new job, my company, Paylocity (www.paylocity.com) is hiring. I've been at several good companies, and this is by far the best Software Development place I've personally seen. We're developing a .Net application for Payroll. Here are some of the perks:

  • Great Learning Opportunities: Working with cutting-edge .Net development (migrated to .Net 2.0 in November, 2005)
  • Work-Life Balance: Local software department - no travel. Dress code is casual. Office hours 8-5. We have laptops and can do extra work at home.
  • Working from home Tuesdays and Fridays.
  • Job Security: Smaller company (100 people total, 20 in software department), so we're too small to be outsourced, and privately owned (and owner refuses to sell), so we won't be sold.
  • Company has been profitable and grown every year (for all 8 years) - even during the IT crash we still grew.
  • Stable Group: 0% involuntary turn-over. Maybe 1 person voluntarily leaves each year.
  • Interesting work: There are separate IT and Internal development departments. Even within our department there are separate QA and Busines Analyst teams. Therefore you can focus on development.
  • Great, collaborative team. Average person has maybe 8 - 10 years experience. Team is large enough that you can specialize in areas that interest you (UI, Business Tier, Database, etc...), yet small enough to still get an interesting variety.
