Pros

The CEO, Christian Vanek is a really nice guy. Most of the low level non-engineering employees are really fun.

Cons

A dead end situation that continues to get worse. A terrible example is set by management and thus passed down to generations of short term employees. No matter what your skill level is, you will become worse. No planning, no testing, no direction, zero coding standards, no maintenance, no code reviews, no defined deliverables, no architectural discussions, no oversight, no coordination or meaningful collaboration, absolutely horrible codebase, zero consistency, no testability and absolutely no dedication to industry standard practices. The "team" has a generally frenzied manner, crazily distracted by the lack of direction, with management that truly doesn't care enough to fix the unbelievable amount of technical debt. The worst case scenario. Horrible pay, no passion, no creativity, no fun.

Hi, I don't agree with anything in your review (well, other than my being a good guy), but you are totally entitled to your own opinion! Thanks for the advice? I guess? Actually I have no idea what to say to a review I disagree with so much. Well, I can honestly wrap it up with this: I wish you the best of luck in the future. I hope you find a position that is a better fit to your needs, habits and perspective! Cheers, -Christian
