Pros
FairWarning is a unique technology company. Finding a software development company that is local to Tampabay and has everyone in one building is unheard of in other companies. FairWarning is tackling some of the hardest business problems and working with the latest technologies to solve them. It is a demanding fast paced culture but it is very rewarding. Knowing that the product we build helps protect people's information is a great feeling.
The company as a whole is aligned to make the customer successful. The politics between teams that I have seen at other companies does not exist here. Since the whole company is in one location, it makes for easy communication between teams. I will often get stopped in the hallway or break room with a question or an idea from another team. The people here are some of the best I have ever worked with.
While the company is demanding it does reward individuals. While money is not my main reason for working at FairWarning, it is something that can't be ignored. I have been compensated very well financially and get company wide recognition for my accomplishments.
The inclusive culture keeps the teams from becoming silos. There are monthly events sponsored by the company to give the teams a way to interact outside the office. The company has fun events for different holidays throughout the year. The field day event in the summer brings out the competitiveness in everyone.
Overall, you will not find another place like FairWarning where each individual can have an impact on and be part of the company's success.
Cons
It is demanding and fast paced. This is not where you come to work if you don't want to be held accountable. When you sign up for a task you have to deliver.
