Pros

The people you're in the trenches with/coworks are wonderful. Unlimited PTO, 401k match at 3% is low but at least it's there.

Cons

You may not have a job tomorrow. Rocket Lawyer has had many rounds of layoffs since late 2022 through 2023. Those who were spared are worked to the bone. In 2023, they started offshoring engineering positions to Brazil to pay 20% the salary. So, good news for Brazilians I guess. Any kind of "profit" is because they've slashed people count. Salaries are under market rate. Many years without a raise even with outstanding performance reviews. Upper management is completely delusional. Priorities shift wildly. Forget about actually shipping a project. You spend week/months on something and it's almost done only to be suddenly told to drop everything because the CEO saw something shiny and said all hands on deck for something else entirely.

Pros

The communication within and across teams are clear and organized. I haven't seen anyone during my internship experience that didn't take full responsibility of their role and issue they are working on. Learnt a lot of hands-on experience.

Cons

DE team supports the entire data infrastructure at global scale, so from time to time we were overwhelmed with the entirety of the scope we have to handle.
