Pros

Greats collaborative teams with great team members and management, hourly pay (only work 40 hours/week and that's it), 12 days of PTO, get to work with cool new tech, decent insurance prices, 2 days WFH a week, relaxed work atmosphere, flexible work times to account for appointments, great starting pay for no experience, fantastic entry level position for new grads to get software engineering experience.

Cons

Work several federal holidays, no upward movement within the company, very little job security (can be laid off the day of with little to no notice), pay increase freezes for over a year, working as a contractor which can sometimes make you feel like a lower-class employee, originally had 4 days WFH a week, not paid enough to even come close to buying a small home in this HCOL area

Pros

Cinder is a good company to begin your tech journey. While the pay was lower than most starting jobs the ability to work at Intel allowed me to learn a lot about the tech world while working at an established company that looks great on a resume. Work/life balance is another big plus as they offer CW roles which top out at 40 hours a week. They also offer fair PTO and Flex holiday pay.

Cons

~ Lower Pay ~ No sick time (must use PTO) ~ At some point (2 years for me) you will outgrow this job and seek out better opportunities
