Be careful what you sign for

Pros

Pay is decent. Daily Uber Eats lunch benefit is nice.

Cons

My role’s scope, focus and resources shifted significantly after onboarding, and it no longer matches what was presented during the hiring process. This is a very reactive culture that does not value strategic planning or prioritization, only rapidly putting out fires. "Unlimited PTO" is impossible to utilize in this culture as every season is "busy season". Even federal holidays are treated as inconveniences to work getting done. Healthcare HSA premiums are covered by the company and frequent company contributions are made to employee HSA accounts. In contrast, what you get charged for visits under Aetna is out of this world.

Pros

The engineering culture is strong, and the team encourages ownership and high-quality work. I had the chance to work on impactful problems with talented colleagues. The tech stack is modern, and there is a good emphasis on performance, scalability, and innovation. Work environment is fast-paced but collaborative.

Cons

Workload can get intense during peak cycles, and processes are sometimes unclear. Communication across teams could be more streamlined. Career progression pathways are not always transparent, and the expectations can occasionally feel high under tight deadlines.
