Pros

Great employees, very smart people

Cons

Management is not as concerned about employees as they make it sound. And, they now require all employees within 50 miles to commute into work--even if they were orginally hired as remote. New hires must be local--dumb to restrict talent base. Layed off some folks recently and claimed they were 'performance-driven" decisions. Everyone knows this is not true. They let go some strong performers. Probably because they were remote.

Pros

I loved my co-workers. Everyone was super helpful and a lot of people were friendly. I enjoyed hanging out with them during lunch hour. People thought very highly of the management. I had a boss that really cared about me personally and was fair but kind. The company also valued personal development and gave time to learn new skills and build side projects for the company.

Cons

I did not find it meaningful to work on software that was helping big corporations.
