Pros

Free lunch, nice views at HQ, smart and really dedicated people.

Cons

Fire, fire, fire everywhere, testing before release(s) is a joke. There is always some bug somewhere waiting to jump and when it does, hoo-boy it's all hands on deck. This is probably from the Tons of tech debt from when the company started as well as a general lack of technical documintation. Issues are usually fixed with a temp patch until it breaks again two releases down the road. Really need regression testing for all aspects of the product. The organization is cliquish. You won't see it at first but give it a month and you will see it. Maybe you will be in one, maybe you won't be.

Pros

Great design team, very integrated with the product, marketing, and dev teams. Also good UX research team.

Cons

Product owners did not have BAs to help them so they were overwhelmed with work.

Pros

Remote work, expensive family benefits, cool coworkers

Cons

If you really wanna go through life on hard mode, choose Alkami. It is dysfunctional on the surface, but as you peel through the layers, you'll see that it's actually rotten on the inside. Everything's a mess. Every page is a bug. The company is one lawsuit away from total shutdown!
