Equity comp software company does not place enough value on employees maintaining the software
Pros
Great co-workers, friendly, and helpful. A good place to learn, work place is comfortable. The break room has coffee and snacks available at all times and they feed you a catered meal every Wednesday and always include a Vegetarian option. They are very open to suggestions regarding snacks and food.
Cons
As an equity compensation software company that pays below the market rate for the area you would think that they would consider offering equity compensation to their own employees, especially since working all day on a system which helps OTHER companies compensate their workers makes one think of how nice it must be to be compensated an amount that directly correlates with your worth. Either management is not aware or they just are not allowed to compensate properly for hard work, overtime, or long hours. If you enjoy working hard make sure you do it because you want to. They seem to focus on praising and awarding their sales department, perhaps this is where all their resources are allocated. Although part of the strategy to align to the agile mindset the decision to break up into 3 separate agile teams did more to distance and compartmentalize and not enough was put into how to bring these 3 separate aspects of the software together.
