Great Gig, If You Can Get It - Senior Software Engineer MeLLmo Employee Review

Room to Grow Innovative Talented People Snack bar Awesome location by the beach

Low salaries for QA engineers

MeLLmo (makers of Roambi) is mid-sized tech start-up in Solana Beach, CA (about 20 miles north of San Diego). Most of the 70ish employees have been with the company for years, but there's a great influx of fresh blood recently as well. Awesome office right across the street from the beach and surrounded by great restaurants, as well as a train stop making commuting from downtown San Diego very easy. Laid back vibe yet everyone works hard. The product the company makes is very solid and sits nicely at the intersection of cloud, mobility, and data. There's a ton of interesting growth opportunities for the company. Awesome board of directors and the management team is pushing in the right directions. It's an exciting time to be at MeLLmo.

The company was building business apps for iOS before almost anyone else, and probably tried to grow too big too fast. That likely resulted in some mis-steps and made things a bit chaotic, but very few start-ups have a perfectly smooth growth path.
