Pros

Growing, profitable company Good work-life balance Full of smart, fun co-workers Opportunities for growth and advancement Great location in downtown Portland

Cons

Still transitioning from small company to larger enterprise. Can use some clearer guidelines and processes to reduce rework and clarify responsibilities. Technical staff could use more training in how to manage teams, work with consultants and formally run projects.

Pros

It used to be a good company - totally messed up by horrible acquisition of Digital safe and by the new management

Cons

Join this company only if you want to witness a bi-annual firing fest! Major firing of key employees done in July 2022, then again in Jan this year and now in Aug 2023. DO NOT JOIN- you will be messing with your career. For many cases it was Last in, First out - New folks were thrown out first and now they are firing old hands as well. Company is in bad shape and is led by a management that loves to make false promises and show you the moon - will not hesitate to back stab! Beware!

Pros

Nothing can be called to be Pro!

Cons

There is nothing in this company other than politics. I was hired as a Sr.SRE with skills on kubernetes, terraform, AWS. There are politics around this role from day 1 and was literally not allowed to work as there was another team whose responsibilities conflicted with mine. There was 0 professionalism and people are rude, raged. Guess what, leadership constantly encouraged it and lead me to leave the company. If you are offered a similar role, just be careful. There won’t be anyone to support. Most importantly, there is 0 job security for any role, anyone can be laid off at any moment, and there is no employee friendly culture here. Just hire, torture and fire culture.
