Pros

Good work/life balance, with potential overtime for crunch periods and flexible scheduling offered to finish up an incomplete bachelors degree. Tight knit, amiable staff across the board. Very supportive management and down-to-earth dev team.

Cons

Not so much room for growth, since it's a smaller business. Management can ride you into the ground if you don't honestly push back on deadlines and feasibility (like any development job). Not much peer review or source control of code when I was there.

Thank you for this thoughtful review and for the three to four years you contributed to Blue Tangerine. We're glad the experience helped shape both your technical skills and your professional foundation. Team Culture: We are proud that the tight knit, amiable, and supportive environment you experienced remains a defining characteristic of Blue Tangerine today. A down-to-earth, collaborative team culture is something we have always worked hard to protect and build upon. Work Life Balance: Flexibility, work life balance, and accommodating our team members' personal and professional development have always been genuine priorities at Blue Tangerine. We are glad that came through during your time with us. Technical Processes: The source control and peer review feedback is something we took seriously and have addressed substantially over the past decade. Blue Tangerine has made significant investments in standardizing our development processes, version control, and code review practices, and these improvements are reflected in how our technical team operates today. Deadline Management: Honest communication around deadlines and feasibility is something we actively encourage across our entire team. We believe that kind of candor makes for better outcomes for our clients and a healthier environment for our developers. This review reflects one individual's experience from more than ten years ago and does not represent the Blue Tangerine our team and clients have consistently experienced. We are proud of how far we have come while staying true to the collaborative culture and values this reviewer recognized.

Pros

none really, the place is a sinking ship

Cons

ownership is passive aggressive and like to gaslight. The company has high turn overs and everything is always broken and on fire and their clients jump ship, terrible quality and customer service. The owner is too cheap to pay for real senior level developers

This review contains several factually inaccurate claims that we want to address directly. Client Retention: Blue Tangerine has maintained long-term client relationships throughout our history. Our clients do not 'jump ship.' Many of our client relationships span multiple years, and our retention record reflects a stable, trusted agency with a consistent track record of client satisfaction. Company Stability: Blue Tangerine is not a 'sinking ship.' We are an established digital marketing agency that has operated successfully for over 20 years, continuously growing our capabilities and serving home builders across the country. Leadership: Blue Tangerine's leadership team has extensive experience in digital marketing, websites, SEO, and analytics. Characterizations of our leadership as unqualified or ineffective do not reflect the reality of our management structure or our results. Compensation: Blue Tangerine offers competitive compensation for our market and consistently works to ensure our team members are fairly rewarded for their contributions. Team Culture: We have multiple long-term team members who have chosen to remain with Blue Tangerine for many years. High turnover is not a characteristic of our organization. We note that this review bears a striking resemblance to a previous review in both content and characterization. We stand behind our record and encourage anyone researching Blue Tangerine to consult our full body of work, our client relationships, and our current team members for an accurate picture of who we are.

Pros

It's a flexible work environment with a lot of trust and autonomy. The CEO is approachable and genuinely cares about employees. Small team, supportive culture, and overall a really positive place to work.

Cons

Because of the size of the company, requires more self-accountability and initiative. Not a place for someone who wants to be micro-managed.

Thank you for this wonderful reflection of what Blue Tangerine stands for. Five to seven years of part-time contributions speaks volumes, and we are grateful for everything you brought to our team. Leadership: We are proud that our CEO's approachability and genuine care for employees comes through so clearly. Accessible, people-first leadership has always been a defining characteristic of Blue Tangerine, and it is something we actively work to maintain as we grow. Team Culture: Blue Tangerine is intentionally built around trust, autonomy, and flexibility. We believe that talented people do their best work when they are given ownership and space to lead themselves. That philosophy is core to who we are as a company. Growth and Development: Investing in the growth and development of our team members is a priority we take seriously. We are committed to creating an environment where people can build meaningful skills and advance their careers. Small Team, Real Impact: Our small team size is a feature, not a limitation. Every person at Blue Tangerine has genuine influence over the direction of the company and the results we deliver for our home builder clients. Reviews like this one reflect the Blue Tangerine our team and clients experience every day. We wish you continued success and are grateful for your time with us.
