Pros

- great salary (very competitive) - decent benefits -- free individual health care plans, "unlimited" PTO, etc. - if you have previous customer experience there are a few avenues for advancement - coworkers are often nice and there is ample teamwork

Cons

- black out dates in regard to the PTO, not truly "unlimited", and since there is not sick or vacation accruals (only PTO) you can only take PTO so long as there is enough coverage on the all-day phone queue (which there never is) - very high turn over rate, before I was hired the entire new hire class quit (4-6 employees) and in a span of 4 to 8 months approximately 4-5 people on my team alone have quit -- this does not include the development or implementation teams - long hours depending on the case load - unspoken status quo to work late, come in early, work on weekends -- anything to stay on top of your case load and metrics (prior to '22 it was expected that employees work every Saturday in January) - cases will be assigned to you even if you meet the quota or minimum taken and when they're assigned it's usually 6:30 or 7p EST - you will have to HUNT management down for role clarity, with such a high turn over rate role-responsibilities are often bungled and haphazardly moved from one employee to another; in order to get the full picture you will have to talk to multiple people from multiple teams and piece it together - merit raises are less than the national average and often times do not take into account inflation - constant internal restructuring - some for the better and some for the worse - abysmal training - new hires go through an "intensive" 3-week training and shadowing course and then are often thrown into areas where a different support employee has left; however you are EXPECTED to cross train and be fluent in more than one functional area if you want to advance in the company hierarchy but that training will most likely not be provided unless you initiate it or hunt down management for the training - very metric oriented organization where numbers and statistics guide the bottom line, who you are is less important than the numbers and statistics you produce - currently there is no clear stream or hierarchy, it is there and built out, but from the bottom-up there is no clear consensus of who to go to or for what - get everything promised during hiring in writing, often times employees are told different things than one another and without it in writing there's not much you can do about it (e.g., raises, internal promotions, transfers to different teams after xx amount of time, etc.)

Pros

On paper, DATIS is the ideal software company, with many of the perks you'll likely find in San Fransisco. It's pretty crazy how generous management is when it comes to benefits and perks. - Downtown location - Free coffee, snacks, beer - Free gym - Unlimited PTO - Apple computers (and laptops upon request) - Birthday happy hours/ catered lunches once a month - Relaxed dress code and time & attendance policy - 401K matching

Cons

DATIS does a great job and doing what it can to invest in culture. Unlimited PTO, free beer & coffee, and a relaxed dress code were my favorite perks. Unfortunately, there is a sense that company moral is still relatively low. It seems many employees are either thinking about leaving or actively looking for new opportunities. Many of the employees that joined after me also left before me, some lasting only a month, which definitely highlights a problem in the recruiting department. Key employees were either fired or quit, which disrupted culture and morale significantly. Small companies like DATIS are usually a hotbed for office drama and chatter. Employees bashing employees and employees bashing management made for an uncomfortable environment at times. Lastly, there seems to be a lack of innovation among the company. Throughout my tenure there was constant talk of change and how we were finally on the right track, but the change was almost unnoticeable. Even after new hires were brought on to shake things up, after a couple weeks the same old problems would arise.
