Pros

- Great environment to work at - Good team environment -Plenty of chances to learn and grow -Competitive starting salary -Management is very understanding (Very team dependent though)

Cons

-IT seems to be always swamped, so it is hard to get any help on technical difficulties -Would like a better raise/bonus (likely due to Covid) -Company growing pains, lots of positions so "too many cooks in the kitchen" feeling sometimes -Cafeteria isn't really discounted (stipend) even though they claim it is

Pros

Good working environment and great benefits.

Cons

Unfortunately, Cadence focuses on building the website with no regard for usability. They don't do research to identify user's problems and design the solutions that resolve the issues. There is no validation for design ideas or assumptions and no measuring the ROI for UX. Under current conditions, Cadence is at high risk of NOT meeting the user's expectations.
