      Pros

      Unlimited PTO was good, insurance benefits were decent as well as the 401k. Upward mobility felt achievable, and I enjoyed the tech stack.

      Cons

      I worked for a fantastic company that was acquired by symplr, and things deteriorated very quickly after the acquisition. The attrition rate was astounding... As engineers left they either weren't replaced or were replaced with offshore developers that didn't have good technical skills. They wouldn't hire more engineers...just more management. Executive leadership micromanaged everything to the point where we couldn't get anything done. Code quality became terrible...we spent 75% of our time putting out fires and fixing bugs, and no meaningful work ever got done. And because good engineers were never hired back the problem only got worse...and it's continuing to get worse (I stay in contact with some of my former co-workers)

      Pros

      I've really enjoyed working here because of the supportive culture and the flexibility of working from home. The team is collaborative, management is approachable, and I've had plenty of opportunities to learn new skills and take on different responsibilities within my role. If you enjoy continuous learning and a positive work environment, it's a great place to work.

      Cons

      The biggest downside is the limited opportunities for career advancement. It can be difficult to move up or receive title changes, even after taking on additional responsibilities. Compensation also tends to be below market compared to other companies offering similar roles and responsibilities, which can make it challenging to stay long-term.
