Pros

I've been with the company for two years as a developer amongst other roles. We have an exciting team, with an exciting product. Lots of challenges to be faced in a new niche space dealing with security and the ability to respond in the face of a breach. With the space so new we do run into a lot of pivot situations that are a constant source of challenge with the ability to rise, grow and improve personally.

Cons

Since the space is new the rapid pivoting that was a trademark of management early on caused a lot of stress. However as management has slowly restructured sprint schedules and the like have become more formalized with process guiding new changes. We've managed to secure some great clients, but low staffing can sometimes create challenges in the form of people resources. As successful as we've been, by most yardsticks we're still a startup at worst, and a medium sized company at best.

Pros

Challenging but yet rewarding environment. Great inner company culture, lunch & snacks are always provided which is great. Excellent benefits for individual and families, the employees are treated as family, very personal environment and a lot of good team work. There is flexibility with working remote as well which can be hard to find in many companies. Above average pay.

Cons

To address other reviewers comments regarding the CEO, I have never experienced any of that. It is a close knit environment so we are all bound to have some rough moments on occasion, which is normal and you'll find in any workplace. We are fortunate enough to work closely with the CEO so we see the day to day which is beneficial for the whole team and company as we get first hand feedback and knowledge of what's going on. The only con I can think of is that we do have deadlines and milestones we need to meet which sometimes requires hours outside of the 9-5 norm.
