Pros

This is a great company for people who are passionate about great code and solving interesting scientific problems. There is always active discussion amongst employees about the best coding paradigms or infrastructure improvements, and management is receptive to good ideas. Individual employees are given a lot of independence to work without having to follow oppressive management or process. Management tries hard to consider individuals strengths and preferences in their work assignments. There are plenty of avenues for advancement for talented, motivated employees.

Cons

There can be a learning curve at first for new employees to figure out their place in the company. Management is actively trying to make onboarding easier. Part of the problem in this regard has been growing pains of rapid growth from small to medium company size which has required new company infrastructure to be developed.

Pros

Stellar Science is very focused on doing development "right". It does not have layers of management and developers are encouraged to be independent, creative, and rigorous. The benefits are appropriate for a small company, including a fully funded 401k and strong health benefits.

Cons

Because of the lack of management layers, sometimes it's not clear what "career growth" looks like. If you want to be a scientific developer and maybe grow into being a technical lead, this is a great place to land. If you're looking for more mainstream management opportunities, you won't find them here.
