Pros

- you will meet some really talented and hardworking individuals - despite all the cons the company could have a great potential - marketing team is amazing - unlimited PTO

Cons

Apply with confidence if you love: - extreme micromanagement - pm nagging people multiple times a day which is disturbing and negatively affects their productivity - drama - gossiping - terrible (or should I say lack of) onboarding process - time tracking - hearing the word “budget” - uncertainty - unhappy people - unrealistic deadlines - poor communication - lack of job security - lack of career development - having to be onsite every single day with no exceptions (WFH is NOT encouraged even if you are sick. Seriously, colleagues showing up sick, coughing and sneezing during meetings and therefore getting others sick is practiced here) - being treated like a contractor even when you are a FTE - having to park in an awful garage which will cost you $175 (they will give you half back but you’ll pay tax on that) - low-end medical and vision insurance (good luck finding a doctor! As for vision, you’re out of network even at LensCrafters) - no 401K match, spousal insurance coverage or any other standard benefits other tech companies provide - lack of company sponsored outings/team building activities. If they ever happen, it’s mostly during lunch or after work hours

Pros

Seamgen is a great budding company with a load of opportunity. There are many projects for developers to work on and enhance their skills. Leadership is good about paying for training and there are opportunities to make additional income in the company. Some clients have ample work to keep the company busy, so there is room to earn extra for additional hours. Most programmer's that work for Seamgen are solid and there are veterans in the company in which to learn. Projects range from web development, mobile and desktop and developers work closely with clients in an agile setting.

Cons

Some of the administration tasks, seem disorganized. Seems like its gotten better, though recently with the replacement of some of the administrators. The company is growing rapidly, so developers are spread thin until new developers are brought on board and up to speed. There is definitely an expectation to be able to fulfill a consulting role. Devs who haven't done consulting are not necessarily adept with dealing directly with the client, and are put in a client-facing position. As with any consulting project, there is a shuffling of developers to fill roles for new clients.
