Pros

I've been working at Sourcetoad for just over a year now, and I am extremely grateful to be a part of such an amazing team. If you are a developer, you know there are times you could mistake your work environment for a sweat shop. Luckily, I have never run into this problem at Sourcetoad. They provide extremely flexible working hours/vacation, work from home option, and countless amounts of learning opportunities. There are plenty of deadlines here just like any other company, however from the top down, the company sets reasonable deadlines for the entire team. Everyone that works here is extremely good at what they do, and they very open to sharing their knowledge. The company is constantly up to date with the latest and greatest in the tech world, allowing us to learn something new almost every day. Everyone here is encouraged to voice their opinion, and no one is ignored. Since Sourcetoad is a work-for-hire company, the company is always bringing in new projects. This really prevents you from getting bored working on the same thing year after year. The company truly cares about you and will provide you with whatever you need to make you successful at your job. I'm very happy to be working at Sourcetoad.

Cons

Would be nice to be a little more up to date with everything that is going on inside the company.

Pros

Sourcetoad is a great place to work with people who care about your personal growth.

Cons

There are not many cons; just in years, the company has been trying to evolve its business strategy to avoid layoffs, so there could still be some challenging roads ahead.

Pros

It can be a good place with decent work life balance. Management is usually willing to train and promote within. They are understanding and can really feel like a "perfect" place to work at times, which is why you will see lots of good reviews. But don't drink the kool aid!

Cons

Layoffs, layoffs, layoffs. Almost every year. No job security. Unfortanely no matter how hard you try to make a place have a great culture without money flowing in things fall apart. Sadly consulting is a very tough business with tight margins and highly dependent on clients whims. The main issue is it seems they can't figure out how to create a stable revenue and with a tough market and fierce competition from offshore firms Sourcetoad is in a tight spot. To me it also seems they overspend and overextend, all of the nice little perks you get as an employee come at a cost to the business. They also tend to overhire which caused a big downturn a couple of years ago where they invested into a possible business that when it went sour employees paid the price. Anyways I can't recommend this place because despite the possibility to be a great place they can't offer job security.
