Pros

The benefits are amazing and the PTO allows me to travel and spend time with my family. The best part in terms of development is that the range of technologies and willingness to try anything to see if it works for the company is unheard of. In the last two years I have worked in C#, Node.JS, Python, Angular.JS, React.JS as well as interacting with multiple new server technologies including Docker, Amazon Web Services and other cloud based technologies. Most places I have worked at over the last nearly two decades have been a one tech shop. LAMP stacks usually. Here all technology is fair game to at least try and see if it fits. We are moving from LESS to SASS because it will be a better solution for our future endeavors. We have people that program prototypes in Ruby and we got to at least two training conferences a year (this year I went to Fluent and will go to OSCON). Like all jobs there are ups and downs, but I have never ever been at a place that has this much opportunity to not only stay relevant technology, but also to influence what tools and technologies are adopted.

Cons

Having worked at a lot of businesses, I don't feel that there are that many cons to this job that are not discovered at other places after a time. Overall, I have no complaints.

Pros

Excellent benefits - 5 weeks PTO annually, free healthcare for your whole family, 401k matching Fully remote workforce Regular bonus awarded through profit sharing Casual culture, work hard play hard type of vibe You can get a lot of experience on a number of projects or collaborative work with other teams

Cons

Not a great place for people who need really structured management or tasks - you need to be self-motivated enough to get things done quickly as a remote worker, and be responsible and driven enough to be able to figure stuff out on your own as it's very trimmed-down on the management and operations side. Don't work here if you're not comfortable with shifting priorities - we work fast to try new things and pivot quickly as needed.

Pros

Remote, team before everyone was let go.

Cons

Fear culture, no communication or rather, some manipulation. No collaboration amongst other teams.
