Pros

I have worked other places and this is one of the better atmospheres I have experienced. There is always something new to learn and the other employees are fun and usually helpful and collaborative. It can be a little fast-paced and hectic at times and most of the time that makes it fun.. The company pays for lunch every Friday as well as other culture club events. They generally do a good job recognizing people at a weekly standup for their contributoins.

Cons

The company is always changing and sometimes it feels like they should slow down a little bit. I moved 4 times in 2 years with the company and had 2 different managers. Career growth was ok, but they were starting to work more on that when I left.

Pros

Excellent benefits, generous vacation policies and Friday lunches are just a few perks that set AtlanticBT apart. We have a Culture Club that is constantly devising events that keep things fresh, from Chilli Cook Offs, Egg Drops, bowling and PumpKing contests, you get to let your inner geek shine with pride. Career Plans are a regular part of AtlanticBT for all employees. You can grow your skills and focus on specific areas you want to specialize in. Your career will take you as far as you like here. Have a concern with a project or procedure? The management is very approachable and always looking to streamline and improve processes. I've been an employee for over four years and have been amazed at the growth I've witnessed over the years. I look forward to being part of AtlanticBT's continued success.

Cons

AtlanticBT is very faced paced and you have to have a desire to be successful. Sometimes it can be stressful, but hard work is recognized b all levels of employees and management.

Pros

Lunch on Fridays and social events

Cons

Unfortunately Atlantic BT has a lot of issues, most of them are due to the lack of real experience in any organization other than Atlantic BT. The CEO hasn't really had a real job outside of Atlantic BT and it shows. He doesn't face problems head-on, time and again he has refused to listen to employee feedback, and he thinks being solution-oriented means having more social events. Meanwhile, turnover has been disgraceful, most of the leadership there have been there for so many years they have no idea what they're doing, and it's extremely disorganized as a company. The developers believe they have near-perfect skillsets but it is not the case. They are 'ok' at best. Before coming here, I had a lot of experience with developers and honestly many are much more talented then what you have at ABT. The problem is that no one is really trying to get better. There is no training or development and absolutely no managing. Since no one is actually giving anyone meaningful feedback, no one really grows as an employee. You find out frequently through the grapevine that the President is not honest with most people, and he's a people pleaser. I'm still not sure what he does. The technology that ABT works out (outside of AWS) will be obsolete soon, and no one is doing anything cutting edge. It's just a run-of-the-mill agency that's poorly managed from top to bottom.
