Pros

Remote, work flexibility and work life balance. Big name Friendly people Good place to start off, but maybe not so good for career development unless you work really hard but even then you may not get the proper pay for the amount of work you do.

Cons

Lack of official career ladders and review process to allow career growth for most eng Disconnect between upper management and engineers Disconnect between HR and engineering and too many hoops for budget allocations Poor healthcare benefits Not enough incentives to keep long term engineers, leading to a lack of subject matter expertise in many areas Engineers are spread too thin over too many things Too much tech debt not enough engineering innovation opportunities

Pros

The team is very straightforward and helpful and they are willing to give you whatever tools necesary to win. One of the best teams I have ever worked with to be honestly.

Cons

Not many but you need to be flexible with hours as this is production work but that is industry standard.

Pros

The company had really good happy hours and events to attend. Food almost everyday.

Cons

Awful management team. Everyone will plot against you if they see potential. Very political culture and one boss there is a weak male figure in the office. If he doesn’t like you all the other managers follow suit. Mind you he has no power at all yet managers at his same level report to him. Must be experienced to work there really come in with a book of business with accounts that have lots of money because that’s all they care about. They will use and abuse you then cast you to the side make sure you have a second job to lean on. Frequent layoffs no managers of color either. Lots of red flags in the begging do not ignore them.
