Pros

-Lots of opportunity in corporate IT for current students/recent CS grads to work on large and diverse software applications and quickly get real world experience as a developer. -Experience with all layers of full stack development without being isolated to one task; if there's an area of development you're not particularly strong in, you will be after working on their corporate IT team. -IT management is very open to exploring new technologies and suggestions from developers. -Encouraged to grow as a developer and given the tools to do so; lots of projects are innovative and challenging and you'll rarely (if ever) be doing the same repetitive type of work over and over. -Great team. I genuinely enjoy the company of all my team members and they're super pleasant people to work with.

Cons

-Occasionally project priorities shift and something you've put a lot of work into ends unused which can feel discouraging. -Agile development process sometimes moves too quickly and it can be stressful to balance producing results vs. preventing technical debt.

Please get with the Manager of IT in regrads to the project priorities shifting and the speed of agile devlopment. It can be tricky to balance speed and quality. I know you all can figure this out. Let's get clear and focused. Let's be sure we are talking and working towards a common goal.

Pros

You can pick your start time (anywhere from 7:30-9:30 am), and you only have an 8 hour work day with a half hour paid lunch. There is free Starbucks coffee, and there always seems to be free food around. The culture is great - if you work hard, you get rewarded. They expect a lot out of you, but I really think it helps you grow professionally. I have been pleasantly surprised by management and how involved they all are, even executives. It's not uncommon to run into them grabbing your morning coffee or eating lunch. There are also a lot of events and holiday parties to help relieve the stress. It is a growing company, so there are a lot of opportunities for growth and/or promotion coming up.

Cons

There is some turnover, but if you are dedicated and work hard, you will do well.

Pros

The company gives a lot of opportunities to grow and this is a great thing. Much like with everything, you need to put it time and should be willing to grow. I see a lot of employees wanting to grow but not putting the work. The company cannot help you if you don't do your part. Very collaborative environment specially in operations. Great people to work with company wide.

Cons

You will be put in situations where you are uncomfortable but not without help so you can experience new things. This is a con depending on what type of person you are. It's neither good nor bad in my opinion.

Thank you for your review. There have been a lot of changes in 2018. A new Level 1 Support team has been created and duties normally completed by Finance, IT, and HR have moved to this team. We are in the process of documenting the new operational organizational chart, generating job descriptions for each position on the team, and documenting Tasks in an Accountability chart for each position. This should become much clearer in the coming weeks.
