Pros

This company has consistently grown in size and revenue over the last 8+ years. They strive to provide the most comprehensive benefits and wellness programs in the valley. This is not a start-up company culture with free food, ping-pong and pets. What they do offer is the opportunity to work on software that provides value added risk and fraud prevention services to the financial industry. The work done at Early Warning helps ordinary people not just corporations. The company is stable and has not down-sized in their history. If you are willing to work hard and want to lead the opportunities will present themselves.

Cons

As with many companies that grow rapidly there are periods of time when the focus seems to be all over the map. Sometimes the lack of focus can scare people off. The company has not yet matured to a point where it is fully capable of delivering at a rapid enough pace to keep up with the ever changing fraud and risk industry.

Pros

Really solid company. Good high level leadership and the best culture ive seen. Runs like a start up so lots of opportunity for impact. Growth is everywhere and theyre supportive of continuing ed. Culture varies by LOB. I work in Paze and cannot speak to Zelle or Certos.

Cons

This is silly but I cannot stand the work laptops. Small little windows machines.

Pros

Friendly coworkers, interesting problem space if you like finance and big data. In-office requirements but many show up after 10 or leave before 3.

Cons

Around the time of my exit, two people in leadership were fired. In my professional career I've never witnessed a firing that felt more like a humiliation ritual. They were paraded around the office and through all-hands meetings to aid transition (presumably for a new VP installing their replacement of choice), with my direct leads acting incredibly two-faced. Wishing condolences to the faces of the newly departed, but celebrating behind closed doors. Really gross. This behavior would at least make sense if it were in service of a good technical vision, but in my ten years of experience I have truly never seen worse development standards. Rampant ego and inertia. Getting engineers to even use Git is like pulling teeth. Want to install Python 3.10.x instead of Python 3.11.x? Have fun waiting 2 months for approval. And the communication from the executive level is nausea-inducing. Rarely we hear anything that strikes at the core of these issues. Rather it is vapid platitude after platitude. And insistence on the adoption of core values that feel like a Temu version of Amazon LPs.
