Pros

Team is awesome! RSU grants are a nice-to-have. New CEO seems promising. Head of HR seems to be doing everything she can to get the culture turned around.

Cons

Current VP of Engineering and Chief Product Officer do not get along, no matter how fervently they try to gas light. Pay has suffered - no one had bumps in pay for 2023, so everyone took a pay cut due to inflation. They then gave minimal 3% increases to the vast majority of folks saying it was generous (they basically matched inflation so they made everyone whole from 2022 - not a pay raise). Benefits are meh. They've made progress to improve benefits, but they're still well behind the offerings of other tech companies.

Pros

The Forensic Team Director is awesome to work for. He’s always happy to help and always happy to teach. He’s supportive and makes sure we have a great work life balance when possible. Most work is remote and does allow you to stay home and work at your own pace. Travel is pretty much never done.

Cons

Pay is a bit low and departments don’t communicate very well between cases.

Pros

High ownership over work product.

Cons

Always in a rush to deliver feature work, so tech debt accrues and developer experience is much worse than it could be.
