- 2 month period where you have no benefits and can be fired at any time (It was difficult to live without health insurance for 2 months) - Only about 5 paid holidays(felt low to me) - Pay less than glassdoor's average for entry level software developers in Lancaster, PA - Days felt riddled with meetings - Daily standups could've been reduced to 3 days a week and/or virtual updates - Retros felt pointless - Weekly team meetings seemed to only be beneficial for the managers - Expectations weren't always clear
