Nice people, good training, decent salary

Cons

They make changes to processes a lot in hopes of making things better but it usually just makes things more confusing

Pros

- Strategically, the company is extremely well run; senior leadership is relentless about understanding industry needs and trends, and is always thinking several moves ahead - Very good about shifting resources to capitalize on opportunities as they arise; this company misses very few opportunities to advance its position in the market - Growing at a steady clip, quick but sustainably so; you'll never worry about financial mismanagement, and your job security is pretty much guaranteed as long as you perform well - The people are great; lots of high performers, coworkers are generally in good spirits, and there's a healthy relationship between levity and professionalism - Engineering leadership team is passionate about constantly improving life for engineers, and holds themselves to high standards - Engineering department culture emphasizes ownership and initiative; engineers can earn a good deal of autonomy - Ultimately, you're building products that people depend on every day - the feature you build / bug you fix will make someone's day

Cons

- Older codebases + few greenfield projects = fewer natural opportunities for keeping up with industry developments - Stubborn mindset around employee investment; should be more willing to look at spending on equipment & conferences from an ROI viewpoint rather than raw cost, taking into account the boosts to employee performance & retention - Rapid fine-tuning of work priorities, while good for the business, may feel like priority whiplash from the individual contributor perspective; in general, the brisk pace is not for everyone

Pros

Great place to work if you are up for the challenge and have initiative. Those with initiative are the ones that get assigned cooler projects and make more. I see all the reviews about good coffee, but I rarely drink coffee and find medical, 401k and PTO policy to be above average. Also, the CEO on many occasions is extremely generous and rewards those that contribute.

Cons

Limited flexibility with schedule, but healthy PTO accrual compensates. Those that don’t like to contribute and are just along for the ride will most likely leave on their own free will.
