Pros
- As a developer I would find it very difficult to justify leaving Cvent at this time. The technologies being used and expertise in technology are a rare find. - Cvent uses a lot of great technologies some being React with Redux, ES6, Docker, Webpack, Babel, Java, .Net, Postgres, AWS - There are always new technology to learn so you'll never feel complacent. - Management values those who are serious about technology and own the products they work on. - Good benefits. - The pay is competitive. - Work from home days - Very diverse and multi cultural workforce - Subscriptions to various of technology training sites like plural sight and safari books - The culture is your typical tech company beer, foosball, ping pong, arcade games, and whatever other fun stuff someone thinks of.
Cons
- The tech divisions weekly hour expectations are 45 hours a week. Not sure how much of a con this is given that most developers are working more than 40 hours a week anyways. - Sometimes trying to stay on top of all the technologies can be overwhelming as there is a lot to learn and you have to be able to pick them up quickly to meet sprint commitments. - Remote offices can sometimes feel out of the loop from HQ - This is a fast paced organization, if you're not serious about technology and aren't able to pick things up quickly you could fall behind.
