Pluspunten

Well known, stable company that's been around for 50+ years. There are opportunities to do light travel since it's small enough to not have extensive offices outside the U.S. but at the same time it does business globally.

Minpunten

Executive team uninspiring and detached from the company as they are located in Minneapolis which does not make any sense as R&D, Sales nor products are located there, only the executives. As others have pointed out they do seem to be in the habit of pruning the employee ranks every year.

Pluspunten

FICO is a great place to work as a software engineer. I had a very positive experience collaborating with smart, thoughtful teammates on technically interesting problems that have real-world impact at scale. The engineering culture values code quality, thoughtful design, and pragmatic decision-making over hype. Leadership was supportive, expectations were clear, and there was a strong emphasis on ownership and accountability. Overall, it’s an excellent environment for engineers who enjoy working on meaningful systems in a stable, well-run organization.

Minpunten

Slower pace of change compared to startups or high-growth tech companies, which can feel restrictive if you prefer rapid experimentation. Legacy systems and tech debt in parts of the organization that require patience and careful refactoring. Process-heavy at times, with multiple reviews or approvals slowing delivery. Less emphasis on cutting-edge frameworks—the focus is more on stability and correctness than chasing the newest tools.
