Pros

Very good work environment, particularly in 2024 when I started. Free drinks, soda, seltzer etc. 4 dollar lunches on site. Amenities, particularly a gym with a basketball court and fitness lessons and activities.

Cons

Policies (for developers) were in constant flux starting about a year after I joined. Testing and code merging changed multiple times in the span of a year. Hybrid working options eventually removed.

As we grow, roles and processes change as needed. We keep expectations clear around performance, deadlines and ownership so our teams can deliver for our clients.
