Pros
- Big enough (and publicly traded) company for career opportunities. Small enough that you get to know the leadership and get recognized for your achievements. - A recent focus has been on creating additional products to cross-sell the existing base, which has meant a huge technology overhaul using some of the latest and greatest technologies and frameworks. CTCT is open to using new technologies and individual teams can generally choose what's best for them. Empowering innovation has become a major focus. - Generally great people. The company culture is collaborative and supportive across all offices. Everyone really believes in helping small businesses, and in you.
Cons
- Stock price is highly erratic, meaning your stock options may be worth a lot or nothing at all, and that can change from week to week - Meeting-rich culture - Centralized decision-making makes it hard to know who actually owns execution - Technology is still legacy compared to many engineering-focused companies and startups, especially DevOps, though that seems to be improving quickly
