Pretty great. I've been through two major release crunches, and while I won't say that a few folks haven't pulled the occasional all-nighter, there isn't anything like the pressure I've seen at other software houses.

In PS it's a bit different, because you're on the road/at engagements often. But they do their best to schedule you so that you're home on the weekends, and you can schedule "no-travel" weeks. In general they've never been anything but accommodating and respectful.

The company is also very spouse/significant-other friendly...I've often seen spouses around the office at the end of the day, during stand-ups at the end of the week, etc.

Work/Life balance is very important to us. Lots of us here at Puppet Labs have young families, and being flexible in that regard is really important.

Living in Portland helps a lot too. I moved up from the Bay Area and my previous job because Portland is a much better place to raise a young family. Much cheaper rent/housing, good public transport, better schools, it all added up to a much better life for my whole family.
