Pros

Flexible schedule, remote work from home

Cons

Some of the performance evaluations are designed to have you make a mistake. For example, the correct answer is found on one line on page 52 in miscellaneous folder files even though the entire patient file states something else. Also when working on real case files this almost never happens, so why put your employees through this. Furthermore, fail more than one performance evaluation and they will terminate you and not even give you a chance to defend yourself. I failed two evaluations with a 89.15% and you need 90% and above to pass. I was terminated and made to feel like a fool. Sadly enough I am not the only one this has happened to. This can be a huge blow to your ego if you have never been terminated before like myself.

Pros

Since being purchased by a large pharmaceutical company, it's a stable and low-risk work environment. People are friendly and sociable, in the short term it's generally an enjoyable place to be. Compensation and benefits are solid, though by tech standards not exceptional (e.g. doesn't match 401k).

Cons

Flatiron has a culture that doesn’t care what gets done or how well it is done, only about who gets credit. When an executive praises an initiative, teams leap into action to claim credit or to “contribute”, which means being invited to meetings for which they add nothing except wasted time. When a client complains about a problem, every team finds reasons that it's not their fault, or better yet invents a reason that it's not a problem at all. (Actually solving the problem for the client is the lowest priority). Meetings are the vast majority of everyone's time, where credit is divided up and where people lobby for the approval of senior management. Even small ideas need to get sign-off from 10-12 people from many different departments, since that lets everyone in the loop claim credit and increases their department's importance.

Cons

Due to the fast pace nature, roles evolve quickly and sometimes that could mean better opportunities and other times stagnation
