Pros

Surrounded by tons of knowledgeable people that are very willing to help. There are so many developers to learn from and if you ask them for help they are always willing to lend a hand. This company does not feel like everyone is under a lot of pressure to get something done, which can be great because it doesn't feel like its every employee for themselves.

Cons

The transition from an intern to a full-time employee is a little awkward and should be handled differently. Overall, the quality of your work as an intern likely won't be taken into consideration (or your team leader review) in the decision for hiring IF you are being interviewed by another team. If the team you interned on is not hiring, you will be "sold" to another team and you will have to interview with them which feels like a completely external applicant interview.

Pros

Licenses are paid for by the company The early trainings are effective Strong values that help set employees on the right path of actions professionally

Cons

"Limitless compensation" is oversold when there may not be ample opportunities to make a 6 figure income that they might promise. Work/Life Balance is a struggle as it is normal to assume 60+ hour weeks outside of internal sales competitions, and 70+ hour expectations during those periods The work culture can greatly vary based on your director and regional VP. Some are amazing, and care deeply. Others will throw you under the bus without second thought because you are easily replaceable.
