Pros

- A corporate mission that involves helping people in genuine need and, ultimately, changing the world for the better. - Collaborative, friendly, supportive employees are prized and there is a genuine effort to ensure that new hires understand and fit with the well-defined corporate culture and values. This goes a long way toward making AllClear a pleasant working environment. - A flat management structure and an executive team with open door policies. - Generally good transparency about corporate objectives, plans and results. - Flexible working hours/location for exempt employees. Leadership is supportive of work/life balance needs.

Cons

- Ambitious plans don't always square well with small-company resources, which can be frustrating. Employees often wear many hats, and workloads can be intense. - Company leaders end up doing so much hands-on work in order to keep up that they can become inaccessible to employees at times, despite the best of intentions. - Base salaries are good but variable compensation/bonus/equity compensation structure is quite limited. - AllClear sits the awkward middle of the corporate evolutionary scale, lacking either the full dynamism of an early startup or the stability, amenities and benefits of larger employers.

Pros

- The company feels essentially like a new company (startup-like) but with existing money in the bank to fund growth of the refined vision and new product. - Good for career growth and plenty of opportunities to pick up new skills and responsibilities. For me, personally, this has been a good place to grow leadership skills. - Interesting and exciting product (CrossChannel™ Platform is the one I work on) and SaaS development - The cloud engineering teams utilize modern technologies and practices like Kubernetes, infrastructure-as-code, Docker, Google Cloud Platform, monorepos, Python, Java, etc. - Development is not hindered by slow release cycles. We utilize a form of Scrumban as our product development methodology. - Intelligent, fun, and pleasant co-workers - CEO is attentive when you talk to him, regardless of your role. This was a drastic change from my time at IBM where even my director was less attentive than AllClear's CEO. - Flexibility with work/life balance - Travel opportunities, especially to the other office in Oslo, Norway - Pay is competitive - Nice office

Cons

- In the current stage of the company, you will need to wear multiple hats, which can be a con for some. - It took longer than I think it should have to re-focus the company into the current direction and product, but as of now it's going in the right direction and trend. - Need to be comfortable with the risks and unknowns of a company/startup with a runway - Sales team is in very early stages
