Pros

Incredibly friendly co-workers who go out of their way to establish relationships away from work. Lot's of out of work activities such as grill outs, scavenger hunts, employee parties. Very cool workspace

Cons

The work life balance is hard. Because the company is so focused on billable hours, you often find yourself working extra to meet your goals. Time spent learning about flows of products, assisting with the fix of software bugs, or reworking issues are not billable to the customers, but often eats up your time. To make up for this non-billable time, you find yourself putting in 9-10 hour days often. Often times too many things are promised during the sales cycle on too short of timelines, which often creates chaos and stress down the line.

Pros

A Really great, relaxed culture. Understands value of remote work. Work life balance is a core value as far as I can tell. Paradigm has one thing that very few companies have which is they do genuinely reward and recognize people who put effort forward and care with further opportunities and compensation.

Cons

The pay is middling for this type of job but the low level of stress + culture of rewarding effort can mitigate that. Raises are not amazing but if you shine you can get promoted to a better role and pay bracket.

Pros

Company culture as a whole. Many of the long time employees are recognized and valued greatly by management and HR.

Cons

A lot of changes quickly that will most likely come back and bite them. New leadership is so AI and technology focused that they are skipping crucial steps. Tons of restructuring and getting rid of quality people because they staffed them in roles that they seem "redundant" now.
