Pros

Thoughtful and creative engineering team on the services side of the company. Very good health insurance due to being an FOC company.

Cons

Sales team can’t close deals and haven’t been able to do it for several years. Leadership just threw more money at the ineffective sales team. Leadership has big ideas on strategic vision, but they are lacking completely in tactical skill.

Pros

The tricky thing about Glassdoor is it takes ratings throughout the lifetime of a company and can’t be separated by eras. Having been an immersive consultant for 5 years, been apart of extended think ranks, and haven’t worked at other companies of a similar size, I believe I have a vast sample size to compare to. Detroit Labs is a great company from end to end. From the talent level to the camaraderie all the way to the future ahead. The portfolio with the brand names and the projects would be a Greatest Hits album for the vast majority of other customer software development companies. The founding team is intelligent, not just open to listening but will make sure you get the resources to do it, and has created a “cool” culture. It’s tough to describe other than that. But even from the interview process you get a great sense of it. Very professional but nice comedic relief at the same time.

Cons

None that I can think of. No company is perfect, but anything I could list would just be inconsequential nit picky things that don’t matter much, if at all, in the grand scheme of things.
