Pros

This is all from a dev's perspective. * Incredibly intelligent, and fun co-workers. The hiring bar is high. * Very positive work environment, coming to work feels great every day. * Good work life balance, never had to work more than 40 hours in a week. * Great benefits. * Great pay for the area. * The opportunity to work on interesting problems. * Small team structure (in Dev at least), means your voice is regularly heard and you get input on big tech decisions. * Modern tech stack. * Modern equipment. * Fantastic middle management who are very open and easy to talk to. * Good tech direction and vision.

Cons

* Sometimes it feels like there is a lack of an overall vision coming down from upper management. * There aren't really clear paths for career growth. * Open office plan can be a pain when you're trying to focus. * Things change quick, sometimes stuff you're working on will get thrown out for something else.

Pros

Benefits are good. That’s about it. Video games mimicking a positive work environment? Ring on a river? I dunno I’m reaching here.

Cons

Literally everything besides benefits. CEO is a clown and middle management is exactly who you would expect to report to such a clown. Big egos and obviously overcompensating for shortcomings elsewhere. If you have had any sort of career in tech then don’t even bother applying because hiring managers are easily intimidated.

Pros

I have been with the company for 8 months and this is hands down the best company I have ever worked for. Here are some of the reasons why: *Excellent work life balance *Employees are paid a competitive/living wage *Excellent Benefits *Endless learning opportunties *Focus on employee development *Great co-workers *The company genuinely cares about the customer experience

Cons

*The culture is VERY social and outgoing so it could be harder for those that are more introverted to adjust. *The company is always striving to create a better experience for customers and employees. You have to be willing to adapt to change and accept that sometimes the new ideas/changes work and sometimes they do not.
