Offer flexible hours and standard benefits, but below average pay and inconsistent team commitment

Software engineer
Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

- good place to start your career - flexible work hours due to mod time - pretty standard benefits, 14 days pto, ppo health insurance and good match on retirement - met some extremely high performing engineers and great friends - shared a sense of care about products

Cons

- impersonal deteriorating workplace, management forced people to come back on site, but cafeteria remains closed, no personalized decor allowed, office maintenance is neglected. - compensation is standard-below standard, especially for existing employees, not uncommon for 15+ year employees to be making less than a new hire - limited growth in performance compensation. promotions do not reflect work ethic or market trend. affecting long term growth with the company - inconsistent work ethic across employees, some work 80 hour weeks to keep things running while others do bare minimum to not get fired - lack of training for new employees
