Senior developer excited about new job at C3
Pros
C3 is an aggressive start-up, focusing on enterprise applications for energy management. This is a great company to work at to build software that actually has value. There is a good mix of seasoned and younger engineers in the staff so we have a rich and productive culture. - You'll be involved with an excellent and close-knit team - You'll be given tasks that actually are important - You'll see your work show up in products that are in use by huge enterprises - There is a high likelyhood that this company will be a substantial success
Cons
Since this is a start-up (although a well-funded one), you have to want to work hard. Being business-driven (as opposed to engineering-driven) means that development doesn't have the final say in what gets done. - You'll have to work hard - "It's not my job" isn't an acceptable response - Product direction is set by marketing, not by engineering (If you do see these as cons, then this probably isn't the right place for you.)
