Pros

Honestly the only two good things I found while working for AVA.AI (formerly AutoFerret) were the free snacks and the 100% paid health benefits.

Cons

50 hours minimum on salary but expected to work more. Any hours worked over 40 are not counted as overtime. Unpaid all night long hackathons for products that benefit the company. Constantly asked to work after hours with no pay. Constantly stressful. Not always paid on time. Salary docked if you don't work 50 hours. Very low salary to begin with. Many illegal employment practices.

We are always striving to compete for talented Software Developers. While your experience at AVA may not be what you had hoped for we support your decision to work somewhere else. For anyone reviewing these posts notice the date they are posted is between July 24th and July 31st. This could be one person's account or past employees from over 4 years ago voicing their opinions. Yes we are a start-up company and are not perfect. We do however, respect our employees and continually strive to grow and develop cutting edge artificial intelligence software.

Pros

New CEO is sharp and focused, you can feel the momentum picking up Overall leadership is approachable and easy to reach out to Teammates are hardworking, collaborative, and genuinely care. Interesting space to work in (Ai + tech) with projects that move quickly Fully remote with solid benefits Opportunity to make an impact

Cons

Not the right place if you want everything handed to you - you have to be ok with figuring thing out on your own sometimes. Small team means you often wear multiple hats - something I enjoy, but others may not Fully remote setup isn't for everyone It can be a lot at times, but if you like solving problems and taking ownership, it's rewarding.
