Pros

-Cool people -Its a job Not much more to say

Cons

-Code is really buggy -Only young people work here which means nobody really stays long -Salaries is bad I was under the impression that this company would be great to work for but oh was I wrong.....They straight up lie about a lot of things. They cheat when it comes to the voting process for best company to work for........ as not very many people were excited to work here. The people here were very cool though and I would hang out with many of them outside of work however thats one of the few pros. It would be in most peoples best interest to try for another company who pays better, has better code and has a better reputation. Also the ghost reviews on here are hilarious. This company doesn't deserve 1 star but in no way does it deserve 5 stars. If you are thinking to apply for this place, just be careful, most of the time they aren't actually looking to hire anyone even though they will post job offers all of the place on the internet. I was just lucky enough to actually get hired when they were actually looking for people. What they plan to happen is to get their name more well known and make it seem like they are hard to get into. You'll see this throughout the stages of the interview. First at around 4 hours and 20 minutes after sending your application you'll receive an invitation to attend an online webinar talking about them, then you receive a code sample to fix, then if they are "impressed" with the code sample that you send them back, you'll get an onsite interview of which majority of the time they will take about themselves and give almost no interest in you as an individual, then if thy were actually looking for people you'll get a low offer with no negotiation, then a tour(I was told you get the tour regardless if if you get an offer) My advice is to apply other places and only apply to Futurex if you can't get a job anywhere else
