Pros

Caring, genuine people, dedication to the craft with an emphasis on process and user research

Cons

Little disorganized, probably due to the recent rapid growth. Some projects are better than others, and some projects much much worse–the client determines a lot of this

Pros

There are still some good, smart architects left at P202. And the UX and Design people are great.

Cons

The software engineers, especially the backend software engineers, are put on extremely large projects and treated as Staff Augmentation to the big companies that are hiring p202. P202 software devs don't "own" the projects and don't have any control over the technology, the design, even the code. The full-time employees at the client sites are running the show and sometimes don't even assign work to the P202er's. It wouldn't be so bad except the Addison office is all hip and cool and the people who work there might as well work for a different company. It's extremely demoralizing to work at a depressing client site where you're treated with disrespect and distrust and then come into P202 and see everyone laughing, happy, and drinking beer on tap and acting like they still work at a startup. And the software devs out at the client site might be there for years with no exit strategy and no other projects they can move to.

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback! We’re continuously looking for ways to improve our employee experiences and every piece of feedback helps! With larger, complex challenges we often need to work directly with our clients — and moving organizations forward at any scale takes collaboration, working hand-in-hand with our partners. This collaboration is key to both party's successes, and something that we’re continuously trying to improve! Please continue to provide feedback to your project and practice leadership so they are aware and can work on solutions with you!

Pros

If you're a designer, this is a great place to work and this review is not for you. The office is cool. The people are fun. If you're in development, and you have very little experience, this company will hire you at a title for which you're not ready. Health benefits are strong.

Cons

If you are a very experienced developer, they will underpay you in order to keep their billing rates down. Because they underpay, they are consistently short-staffed. You still have to deliver. The client calls the shots. So they may promise you WFH days, or reasonable travel time, but that's hollow. The client dictates the terms. They will engage with any client willing to pay - which means some really bad clients. The people with seniority get the good clients. Worst of all, there is a creepy culture that encourages employees to snitch on each other.
