Great culture, slow development.

Business Outlook

Pros

Culture is great. You get to work on user-facing features as a javascript engineer.

Cons

No dedicated testing team. Development tooling is sub-par. Transitioning from mono repo to multi-repo. Code duplication is encouraged because the configuration is brittle. Shared services go down randomly. When they are down, you are unable to develop. Starting on-call rotations. 10 hours of meetings per week on average.

Innovative, Freedom to create, No barriers, Culture that can't be beat

Pros

Here are Cargurus there is a great deal of emphasis on innovation. The innovation is driven by a solid analysis of numbers and data to ensure that it's not innovation for the sake of innovating. The company recognizes that creating something new brings with it a risk of failure, learn from that an move on. There are practically no barriers between teams and this is refreshing. Unlimited Personal Time Off is great for those that are care takers or for that visit to the bank/office that has to be done between 10 - 4.

Cons

Work from home policy was not great, but I fully expect this to change seeing how successful we have been in the COVID-19 enforced office closure.
