Pros

Great culture, tons of great ideas and innovation opportunities, and just good people overall. Client base is excellent and a pleasure to work with.

Cons

Sometimes the firm has trouble sticking with ideas. If you don't get success quickly, projects can get abandoned just as quickly. This is not all that unhealthy, but there are times where the firm probably could have committed more to see some real commercial gains. The trouble is that there are so many opportunities in this business, it is easy to get distracted. Not a bad problem to have, but can be frustrating if you are championing something you believe in.

Pros

learn new technologies fast, AWS training/certification, opportunities to lead

Cons

does not plan work well, unrealistic deadlines, no work-life balance, jr engineers are doing senior level work without compensation/recognition, treats contractors unfairly, does not hesitate to fire people after they worked so hard to meet their unrealistic deadlines, leadership claims "servant leadership," but there's no such thing, leaders do not recognize those who elevated them & they run with the glory, do not want you to log overtime pay, but want you to do the work, hesitate to approve PTO/RTO, interrupt PTO/RTO for work emergencies, Saturday releases, QA department does not have good opportunities to progress your career
