Pros

Great tech stack - company uses a lot of new technologies to develop well maintained code bases and there is a lot of innovative work going on in the engineering teams

Cons

The 401k employer match is capped at 3.5% (if you invest 6%) BUT the catch here is that this employer match vests at this rate - 0% for less than 2 years, 25% for 3 years and so on and you don't get a 100% until you've worked here for 5 years! This is something I found out after I left the company and realized that no money from the employer match came along with me... This is a clear case of HR's cheap tactics to retain employees for long but this does not work! It drives people away even more if you blindside them with this information without being upfront about it in your benefits package!

Thank you for your feedback as we always look for ways to improve the employee experience. To clarify, Frontdoor will match your contributions dollar for dollar on the first 1% of pay you contribute. It will add 50 cents per dollar on the next 5%. You are always 100% vested in your own contributions and Frontdoor contributions are subject to a vesting schedule and are 100% vested after two years of service (not 5). Thank you again for your feedback.

Remote First. They are now a virtual first company. Team is pretty great.
