FastTrack Graduate

Pros

Great training program that helped bridge gaps between conceptual knowledge learned earning my degree and real world skills applying that knowledge utilizing libraries and frameworks we didn't use at university.

Cons

Would be nice to have more continuing education after the FT program. Cook is still a small company that is undergoing growth so there will be bumps along way and they are planning to add an FT graduate program. However, everyone is friendly and they want to work with you to ensure you're on track with your career goals.

Thanks so much for leaving a stellar review and for highlighting what you've appreciated about our FastTrack Graduate program. It's fantastic to hear that the program has been a bridge for you, connecting the dots between academic concepts and the practical skills needed in our field. We're also glad you're feeling the positive vibes from our team; that camaraderie is something we're really proud of. Regarding your suggestion for more continuing education opportunities beyond the FastTrack program, that's a great point. We're always looking for ways to support our team's development and keep everyone growing, both personally and professionally. While we're in the process of evaluating how we can expand our educational offerings, your feedback is a crucial part of that conversation. It helps us understand where to focus our efforts to meet the needs of our team as we evolve. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts and for your commitment to our collective success. Your insights are invaluable as we strive to make Cook Systems not just a great place to start your career but also a place where you can continue to grow and thrive.

Pros

First of all, I'm a huge believer that "culture" is how you feel on Sunday evening about Monday morning. I've never had a Sunday where I dreaded going to work on Monday... it's quite the opposite. I'm excited to go to work each day and the sky is the limit as to what I can accomplish - there are no caps set in place, so this is a good spot for self-driver high achievers. We have a solid product, and nobody out there is doing what we are. Sure, there are lots of IT consulting agencies and lots of software bootcamps, but we do both of them at a higher level, and have found a successful hybrid of both, meaning a balance of new up-and-comers and senior consultants. This is not only good for helping people's careers, but also to balance the business. We are a lean organization, which means that we successfully navigated through late 2022/early 2023 without needing to lay off anyone - this was a huge win. This year alone, we improved the health plan, added a 401(k) match, and revised several policies to be more employee-centric. We also have added several strategic hires that are top of class. The new talent in our organization is well balanced with those who have a long tenure at Cook - some exceeding 20 years. It's a testament to the fact that this is a great company to work for. Hats off to the leadership team for understanding the need to improve and quickly taking action to get there. Bottom line, I love my job!

Cons

As an organization, we are still behind in our processes. Much of 2024 will be invested in streamlining, documenting, and improving both efficiencies and communication flow. This needs to happen as we invest in setting up the organization for future growth and success. However, these are good problems to have, and are just part of the normal process from moving to mid-sized to a larger organization.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review! However, it seems there might have been a mix-up as the details you've mentioned don't quite match our company. We think you may have intended this for a different business. Thanks again and have a great day!
