Cartera Commerce reviews

Friendly people and friendly work environment. Those that say otherwise simply don't know how to be civil, humble, or friendly and simply don't play well with others. Lots of solid work to be done that has a direct impact on the company bottom line. You feel a sense of actually driving the business and company forward working on the projects here, especially more recently within the past year. Despite a dated tech stack, you do learn a lot. And there's movement to shift to more robust and recent tech. So there's an opportunity to learn and grow technically albeit there is no clear date in the future when this will 100% come. The work here really challenges and improves your problem solving skills. You have to handle a lot of information in a system with lots of moving parts and be able to effectively organize it. You have to put your Sherlock Holmes hat on and do solid research through the system to get to the root cause of problems and then come up with an effective solution. This is probably one of the best parts about being a Software Engineer or even a Solutions Architect here. The problem solving really keeps your mind sharp, if you're able and willing. You can't be lazy, you really have to focus and put your head into it. Cartera has competitive pay and benefits package. If you're talented, contributing effectively, and they like you/want to keep you, you won't have to worry about keeping your salary and benefits up here. The work/life balance is impeccable and very respected here so long as you're getting your job done and contributing! If you don't abuse the freedom, this is a very comfortable place to work if you value work/life balance. I must comment on some of these, frankly immature, unprofessional negative reviews: I've read a lot of these very harsh negative reviews and I must say I'm a bit surprised. Yes Cartera had some rounds of layoffs and we downsized to Boston only. This was done in order to keep our business not split between Boston and Atlanta (the biggest reason we had struggles was because of this and the failing Atlanta platform to generate significant revenue) so that we could once again become profitable. Seems like a perfectly logical, sound decision from management. They tried to get into a new piece of the market with the Atlanta platform, it didn't work, it was pulling the company down, so it had to be cut. That's 101 level decision making. Feelings were clearly hurt and it seems like former employees have taken to trolling glassdoor to relieve their frustrations. Kind of sad really because in this field/business, especially the technology side, it's not at all that difficult to find work. So people were let go. Ok, quit whining, grow up, be a professional and deal with it; find another job. For the alleged "current employees" leaving such horrible, hate filled reviews... why not just leave? Clearly you haven't been able to develop a positive career, unlike others, at this company. So quit whining and leave.

There's nothing good about this company at all :(.
