Pros

There are pros here: - The people you work with are fantastic with very few exceptions. - Some projects can be fun and interesting work. - Hours and working conditions are very flexible, easily able to change schedules or work from home. - Developers tend to find themselves in a good position to learn new things. - New hires are compensated well. - Developers that are outsourced are capable and competent

Cons

There are cons as well: - Developers and middle management tend to be stretched too thin - Turn over has been extreme in the past year - year and a half, those who have stayed to make Metova better have not yet been compensated. - Performance reviews are essentially non-existent meaning so are raises / cost of living adjustments. (management is trying a new process, so raises and reviews wont happen for another year) - Developer metrics are not clearly defined. - Developers are often on projects alone and expected to fill a majority of the project management role, including directly interacting with clients which is abnormal when compared against industry standards.

Pros

Amazing people that do crazy awesome stuff every day. Benefits are normal, pay is slightly below average, but worth the trade off any day.

Cons

Customer demands sometimes have peak seasons and there are periods of less work to go around.

Pros

. There is little feeling of management having superiority. You can walk into the president's office and talk one on one at any time and discuss any concerns you have about the company's direction. . Can create any leadership role for yourself. . Internal projects pop up often, and there are lots of people who will help you with them. . They want to see you grow, and they will provide you with every possible mean to do so. . They have your back if your clients are terrible and are too demanding These are a few of the greatest things about Metova. A note of advice, if you are easily insulted and can't take criticism very well..Metova might not be for you. If you suck at your job, they will tell you bluntly, but that doesn't mean they won't greatly go out of their way to try to help you become better.

Cons

. Sometimes management can promise clients something that they didn't confer with their devs about. . Not necessarily a bad thing, but Metova is growing so fast that sometimes things can get very disorganized. . The goal of the company can seem to be shifting more towards Profits than their motto "Creating a great place to work." . The Franklin office feels almost like a frat house sometimes, especially the second floor. Dirty, random junk everywhere, and just crammed devs into wherever an open spot is.
