Pros

Daily life at Fullstack will be unlike anywhere else you've worked. As someone who managed several teams of developers, you will find that each day will challenge what you know and how you do it, in order to meet the needs of the clients. Your co-workers are highly skilled at what they do and there's a very collaborative Slack environment. The designers and creative folks are some of the best you will work with (they're really good)! The executives have a deep interest in being sure you have the best tools, clearest guidance, and a rock-solid process to be sure you can approach each day with the confidence you need to be productive. The folks that would fit best here understand how to mix solid development practices with pragmatic decisions in order to keep the project on schedule and on-budget. The company has flexible policies around when you work, and is generous with compensation and benefits. No matter where you are in your career, working at Fullstack will push you to be at your best, each day.

Cons

Consultancy life isn't for the faint of heart. Work needs to be accurately estimated. Each project has a fairly solid schedule. The expectation is that you will consistently put out work that meets a standard of quality that represents the company. While that's not a "con" for most people, this isn't the place for people that just want to fiddle around with Jira tickets. If you work here, you need to go "all in", but doing so will reap lots of rewards.

Pros

Everyone is given a lot of responsibility and ownership over their projects from day one, even junior people. You can work from home one day per week. They pay well. If you work overtime the pay can be REALLY good. Good 401k plan with 4% match. Cool office with a fully stocked fridge. Everyone gets a new MacBook pro, dual monitors, a standing desk, nice chairs, and any ergonomic equipment you need. There's a gym next door and FullStack pays for 50% of the membership fees. The hours are somewhat flexible. You get to work on cool projects for impressive clients. They work with a lot of cutting edge technologies. They expect you to self manage, so as long as your project is going well, you're given a lot of independence. The managers really care about the team and conduct surveys of employees to make sure everyone is happy on a regular basis. There are a lot of really talented developers here...and everyone is constantly getting better. You get to build complex apps from the ground up, so everyone is regularly learning a ton, and learning new technologies, techniques, etc. FullStack is the opposite of being a "cog in a wheel"....everyone has a direct impact on their projects.

Cons

Consulting is hard work and can be challenging. Tracking billable hours isn't a lot of fun, but it's expected when you're a consultant. The company is growing fast, so there’s not as much structure as larger / more mature companies. You have to be OK with a dynamic environment and a hands off management style.
