Pros

Working at this company is the opportunity to work with the world's leading graph visualization and analysis technologies. For those new to the field, meaningful graph visualization and analysis is much more difficult than it might seem at first glance. Tom Sawyer provides powerful, interactive, and customizable visualizations and analysis for large, complex data. Not only are the visualizations and analysis problems we solve very interesting and challenging, but also knowing how to apply these technologies is very interesting and complex. It is very exciting work. Customers who need solutions for difficult visualization and analysis problems come to us because we can provide solutions for those problems. We help top global customers from a wide variety of industries such as aerospace, automotive, banking, defense, fraud detection, investigation, IT, manufacturing, networking, and pharmaceuticals. Check out the company website blog to see more about what Tom Sawyer does. Our colleagues are very smart and nice. Many have worked for this company well over a decade, while others have returned here after working for other companies. We have meetings with lots of open, lively discussions and I feel respected when sharing my ideas. In addition to the exciting work, we have wonderful work-life balance including working from home and flexible schedules. Also, parents who have taken time away from their careers to stay home with their families are welcomed with full respect for their capabilities.

Cons

Fast paced with wide variety of application topics. I like things that move fast and think variety is the spice of life, however it is not for people who want to do the same work day-in-and-day-out.

Hi. While we love to get feedback, I believe you have reviewed the wrong company. We do not employ any junior network administrators or have any employees in New Jersey.

Pros

Clearly the company is focused on being the best in class. This entails working with extremely talented people on extremely interesting projects. The priority is taking the time now to do the job right vs. taking short-cuts to meet a product release date. If you are good, the exposure and opportunity exists - you will learn a lot. The work environment can be intense but, if you are up for it that can be a good thing. The customer list is first tier which is a testament to the product quality. From the perspective of a sales person, being able to reference this customer list is a significant positive.

Cons

The CEO, who is by the way the company founder, is hyper-focused, driven and knows exactly what he wants/expects. He is extremely knowledgeable about finance, legal, sales, marketing and, of course, software. His experience is invaluable at times but, can also present a challenge for senior managers to do what they were hired to do. For a small company, you would sometimes expect it to be more nimble but, the heavy focus on quality and precision introduces a lot of structure and process. In the end, the structure and process is probably a good thing but, in the moment can appear unnecessary.
