Pros

Sometimes I feel like I'm the least talented engineer at the company. Flock consistently hires the most talented, inventive engineers in the industry. I give credit to an extremely well built product and a very healthy engineering culture that promotes ingenuity and flexibility over extreme hours and insane deadlines. I can't speak for the non-engineering divisions, but compensation and work-life balance are top notch. Best in Atlanta. I've never been able to say this about any company, but the engineering division has no dead weight in my opinion. Everyone contributes meaningful and visible work to the product and company. I also appreciate the transparency that management provides. It's not a secret where the company stands financially and where the company is headed.

Cons

Management expects consistent growth and results. Everyone has a conspicuous, highly visible domain that they control. For better or for worse. Company values and marketing tend to appeal to pathos more often than appealing to objectivity. Sometimes it feels like the company culture is a competition to be the most passionate about the company culture.

Pros

Incredible mission Real-world stories of our technology stopping crime and saving lives Data drives every decision Equitable public safety - meaning technology focuses on objective evidence needed to solve crime and treating everyone fairly I love that Flock Safety thinks about how to ethically protect data privacy while increasing public safety for all. Think about what is happening in America? the social outcry and demand for reform in public safety. Working at Flock gives you the real opportunity to create a safer and more equitable world.

Cons

We move fast. Like really fast. Like, it'll take me 3 days to finish a project that was due yesterday. People are given incredibly high quotas and a HUGE workload. This environment isn't for everyone, as it'll naturally weed out people who do not like the high pressure, move 100mph at all times type of world. And there is no "off." Yes, you can unplug, but be ready to work. Also, benefits and salary are fine. You won't work here bc of the benefits and salary. You work here because you get paid to do the most fulfilling work of your career.
