Pros

Great work/life balance, remote schedule is pretty flexible. We are not micromanaged. Tons of opportunities to learn as a newer developer - lots of classes offered, many self paced learning tools available. Decent benefits and nice 401k program

Cons

End of year bonus is tied to company gainshare factor - when the factor is low bonuses will be very small. It is not related to your personal performance. Promotions from entry level to intermediate can be challenging- there seems to be an emphasis on spending 2 years at the company, rather than focusing on skill level. If your manager does not schedule you for promotion at the end of the fiscal year, there is very little chance it will go through the following year. PTO takes forever to accrue as a new hire.

Pros

One day a week in the office. No weekends. Work from home 4 days. New hires do have to be in office 2 days for first year then go to 1 day a week. Benefits are good. Everyone is awesome. Really only had one supervisor who was a little on the micro managing side but they were new to it. Other than that VP don down the line to adjuster are all super nice and approachable

Cons

It’s a stress full job. I love it but it’s not for everyone. You have to be on your A game every day or you will get behind
