      Pros

      The people were great and you got paid pretty well for the work you did.

      Cons

      Management was borderline abusive and clueless. If it wasnt for the product the company would be screwed.

      Pros

      Working with CarGurus' recruiters is a great start to the experience that hopefully ends in working there. I worked with Miles Petricone who set up all the interviews efficiently and kept me in the loop at every step of the process. He was doing everything he could to make sure I received a fair offer while being transparent about the bands and process. CarGurus has been making considerable investment in updating their tech stack to make engineers more productive. They've made the transition to becoming fully cloud hosted. Developer tooling has improved considerably to make it easier to create and release new features. The company itself does invest in its employees as well by offering many opportunities to learn through online resources which they pay for. Certifications costs are covered as well.

      Cons

      Full work from home is a rare privilege for a select few and there is an expectation to be in the office for some amount of time. Personally I am least productive on days that involve commuting into the office.

      We appreciate this thoughtful feedback and will be sure to pass it along. Miles is a fantastic person and recruiter--one of many on our TA team. As you experienced he truly lives our core values of transparency, collaboration, and integrity. We're glad you're both Gurus!
