Connecture Software Developer reviews

Hype driven development - teams free to choose technology stack based on hype over best fit. Sudden layoffs of key employees, everyone stressed not knowing if/when another round will occur and if they will be next. Lack of clear communication between offices. Apparent lack of direction within engineering. Raleigh, NC centric. If you aren't based out or have representation there, you are largely ignored. Betting company on new projects developed in isolation for every line of business instead of enhancement and expansion of current products. Critical decisions made in isolation. Shifting to lower quality off-shore development in blind cost cutting measures.

Cutting edge technology. (buzz word driven development) This is great if you understand new technology, but this isn't the case. This causes developers to fish with dynamite instead of hooks and reels, Consistently under market pay scale across the board. You can't expect they pay in WI to be the same for people in CA. Leadership will cause contentious feelings between the offices. All this contention builds up like a powder keg. Layoffs. Unceremoniously. Resignation of great talent. Unceremoniously. Wholesale layoffs. Unceremoniously. As a health care and benefit search and enroll platform, the health care and benefits are terrible. Director or above stock options only. What's good for the gander should be good for the goose.
