Pros

Lunch is provided on Thursdays

Cons

They will lie to you during recruitment, here are just a few things I was told during recruitment that were not true: Great company culture. There is zero company culture, in fact most people keep their heads down and choose not to talk to one another other than the few people on their team. Company events, perks, fun are non existent. Competitive Salary. Lowest Ive seen in the Boise software industry. Floating Holidays. There are none but told there were. Dress Code. Told it is a casual work environment where expression is encouraged. This is a lie and the dress code is constantly getting stricter. No Mandatory Overtime. Many months with mandatory Overtime with PTO blackouts, manly around the holidays. Work Life Balance. There is none. Hybrid work options. Took those away from everyone but management. On top of all this you have only 10 minutes combine a day to use the restrooms. Every second of your day is micromanaged by multiple people.

Pros

The directors and managers treat you with respect. They offer really good benefits, and the job is fun. with a lot pressure, but fun.

Cons

there has been a lot of changes throughout the years and they seem to be starting to micromanage a bit.
