Pros

One step forward, two steps back. Agile IT offers cloud solutions that many other companies aren't even aware exist. That also means we sometimes offer services that aren't ready yet. Time management is flexible. I can work remotely sometimes. I've seen a few people sent to official Microsoft training this year. There's an Xbox, but I have one at home so I never use the one in the office. Our documentation is better than most, but engineering doesn't deliver it consistently. We're "cross-trained" so there's no accountability when a task isn't completed.

Cons

We used to review financials weekly at team meetings, but that stopped last year. We just laid off a few people. Characterizing that as a "growing company" seems misleading, but so are our other practices. We are routinely told to inform our clients that our team has 50+ people when we have fewer than 20 FTE's. Were a "data driven" company, but I have no metrics showing my growth over the years. Benefits aren't the best as others have mentioned. The other recent review about upper management being difficult to reach is also accurate. The CTO disappears for weeks/months at a time. The CEO will often skip your meeting to take his kids to baseball, but forget to tell you he won't be attending. The COO is overly process-oriented but great. I heard he's retiring though. New VP is good so far. I'm not a fan of the sink or swim training. Some people have advanced, but I don't have any personal goals or KPIs assigned to me from management. You're expected to "forge your own path" but not really provided any guidance on how to do that.

Pros

If working with cutting edge technology, learning a LOT and have a Passion for results, this is the place. Great culture, leadership understands and cares about employees, there are no office politics games. Everyone does their best day in and day out to help out and carry forward our customer projects and issues. Great sense of camaraderie. You will learn a lot, management is committed to making it a learning organization. Working with cutting edge technology. Very focused on delivering based upon the highest standards. Never a dull moment, a lot of new exciting opportunities in the horizon.

Cons

None that i can think of.

Pros

100% remote. That is it. Nothing else.

Cons

If you want to work where you are consistently monitored and judged, this is the ideal place for you. There is no autonomy. You are encouraged to share you thoughts and ideas but then quickly told that your thoughts and ideas are terrible.
