Pros

Mark and his team work exceptionally hard to go above and beyond for the employees at Intrepid Pursuits. People are the greatest asset of the company and are treated as such. Beyond start-up perks, the environment is catered to making people comfortable and happy.

Cons

We move so fast that occasionally things feel chaotic. The company tries to maintain an incredibly high level of transparency to offset this.

Pros

The Houston office has a great culture. Projects were decent. Learned a lot when I knew absolutely nothing about web development

Cons

The NYC office is dreadful. Awful management and the office has absolutely no culture. Everyone hates it there and talks about leaving. All senior development leadership has recently left and the new development leadership are really not the great developers. The group is def going downhill, and I don't expect it to exist five years from now. Quality of projects are getting worse and worse and I wouldn't recommend working here unless this is your only option. I was thankfully put on good projects when I got there but things have been getting worse and continue to do so.

Pros

* Big clients and impactful projects * Security and stability of Fortune 500 parent company * Industry best apprentice program for first time job seekers * Lots of growth

Cons

* Can be hard to find a mentor * More corporate red tape and rigidity than some engineers can stomach * Lots of turnover It is actually tough to say whether this is a good place to work because any individual's experience will depend heavily on what project they are currently staffed on. Some of the projects are a pleasure to develop software for, and some are a complete nightmare. I would guess that some of the problematic project situations are due to an inherent culture clash between the former indie software studio and new parent company. While there is movement towards trying to transform the culture and practices of the parent company from the inside-out, it unfortunately makes for a painful and uncomfortable work experience for those on the front lines and does not making for a positive environment for engineers. Perhaps this will be a fantastic place to be in several years, but the journey there will be an unpleasant process for many. To anyone considering working here- despite the funky office space and demographics of this little group, I would caution you to be mindful of that fact that you are signing up to work for an absolutely massive consulting operation with 400,000+ employees. You will be reminded of that fact early and often.
