Pros

Great company culture, they understand small business and want to help them every step of the way. I get to work with a talented group of folks and have an extensive network of folks across multiple offices if I need help with things. Wonderful benefit packages and excellent salaries. It's hard work sometimes, but if feels like you're making a difference.

Cons

Not a lot, some divisions are tough to work with but they are improving by leaps and bounds.

GoDaddy Response

Thank you for the great feedback. GoDaddy is pushing forward with our vision for the company both in what we do and how we do it. I'm glad its resonating!

Impressive Tech Company

Senior software engineer

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Amazing infrastructure. GitHub Enterprise, OpenStack, Jira, Confluence, Jenkins and many others. Impressive Tech Stack (varies by team): Java, Docker, SaltStack, IntelliJ. I try to sprinkle in some python. Impressive upper management: Met them at the NEW employee orientation - they fly you out to AZ for a couple of days. All of them are super smart and really down to earth. It was fun hearing their stories.

Cons

There is a lot of legacy systems. Large projects can sometimes consume you. Pace is sometimes is a bit fast on the border of unsustainable at times, but is mostly pretty good.

GoDaddy Response

Appreciate the comments. Thanks to the infrastructure and tech stack investments you mentioned, the proportion of legacy systems is steadily diminishing.
