Incredible work culture. I grew more in a year there than anywhere else.

The free lunch meant that my stomach grew, too.

Pros

- Work from home - Great benefits

Cons

- No holidays - No overtime - if you get caught on a call past your hours its on you to solve the issue before you can close up for the day - Hardly any vacation - Feels like the company doesn't value gurus (lowest position) they over hire them in prep for their busy times - No formal review process - leads review employees every month but there is zero consistency

Pros

Great support network, benefits are amazing.

Cons

Management does a poor job of putting a growth path in front of you. difficult to make lateral career moves if you are in tech because your role is often specified into a niche where you learn just enough skills to do your role there but it is difficult to do a similar role in another company. They don't have a concrete way of determining how well you work. The work you do is objectively reviewed by your lead and perhaps one other person, but work expectations are so fluid and arbitrary, you feel like you will never hit your targets.
