Pros

Coworkers are generally very friendly Office space is modern, clean, convenient Agile/scrum process is trying to take hold, this gives developers some amount of liberty to build software as they see fit

Cons

Communication between teams is very poor, communication between levels of management is disjointed. Recently acquired, prompting many senior employees to leave. Managers are struggling to find fair & accurate performance metrics. Integrating remote employees into tech teams is also a major struggle.

Pros

Good remote work. Full stop.

Cons

The company operates on a very tight budget and was understaffed during my tenure. As a result, you will be expected to cover 3+ roles simultaneously and work well over 8 hours a day to keep up with management’s expectations. Consider it only if you are passionate about the second mortgage industry (???). This is the only company I regret having on my resume.
