Pros

Low micromanagement/pressure Relaxed atmosphere Nice development office (Coral landings) Work life balance (Avoid being placed in unemployment insurance (UI) at all costs if you want this. 90% of the complaints about overtime come from being in UI)

Cons

Low expectations (contributes to low pay) most of the developers contribute very little to the code base because there are zero expectations beyond clearing incidents in a reasonable amount of time. Low pay - The company focuses on quantity of developers rather than quality so it weighs on the ability to pay higher wages. Low growth depending on your starting salary - All wage increases are percentage based even for promotions so if you come in with a low salary it is going to stunt your growth Most good benefits are deferred until 3-5 years of employment

Pros

No dress code No federal background checks unless listed on projects No drug screens Work from home during COVID Lax management

Cons

Outdated technology stack Incompetent management You will work on bugs all day every day- no cool development, just speghetti code and defects You will work 70 hours per week with no compensation, work on weekends, work through holidays and your paid time off. You will be called all hours of the day and night. You will be used and badgered day and night. The company actually sends out cupcakes as a reward for working 70 hours per week while it pays you one of the lowest salaries in the market. Clients hate the product and the PMs treat staff terribly. It is hard to blame them but you will get tired of this. There is no management structure here and the owner thinks he is a developer. The company is one lawsuit away from folding. No work - life balance Most people here hate their job - everyone is miserable. The owner forces employees to post good reviews to dilute the bad ones. You will waste your time and your talent here- you were warned

We are sorry to hear about your experience and the way it made you feel. While this has been a trying period and we continually strive to provide a service for those looking to join the workforce or dependent on unemployment insurance, we make the extra effort to help those who are in need which may include working outside of normal business hours. As a balance, we provide a generous PTO allowance to help offset those efforts. We keep an open door policy and would appreciate the opportunity to hear about your concerns. Feel free to reach out to hr@geosolinc.com if you would like to discuss further. Thank you for your feedback.
