Pros

-New hires and star talent are compensated reasonably well -The Dev/QA tooling is solid -The PTO policy is generous -100% remote (if you consider that a pro) -The people you work with day-to-day are pleasant and generally treat each other well

Cons

-Investment seems to be limited to initiatives that make the company look appealing to potential buyers, not initiatives that benefit customers or employees -Poor documentation and high attrition has created large knowledge gaps in important departments and functions -Goals and expectations set by C-Suite level are very often blatantly unachievable given the available resources -Frequent layoffs and the offshoring of resources has created a widespread feeling of job insecurity -The unrealistic pace and job insecurity has created a culture where employees feel pressure to do just enough to “check the box” instead of taking the time to do something correctly -The level of tech debt is stifling and there is virtually no willingness to pay any of it off -Most of the code has a very legacy feel and isn’t very fun or exciting to work in

Pros

Young teams and leaders who are open to new ideas Unlimited PTO policy Fully remote, work from anywhere Real opportunities for internal movement and promotions Focus on development and stretch assignments

Cons

Direction can shift quickly as the business evolves, flexibility required Speed is a core value, sometimes at the expense of polish or process Remote-first takes intention as it's easy to feel disconnected if you're not proactive Unlimited PTO is great but you have to be disciplined about actually taking it Growing fast means some systems are still being built as we go

Pros

- Working remote gives lots of flexibility - Given freedom to explore new ideas in your role

Cons

- salary and benefits are below industry standard, and no real room for advancement - No trust between departments, toxic culture despite what leadership is telling you, they will often lie to your faces and make false promises - New leadership does not actually listen to their employees or the teams and are preparing the company for a sale instead of taking real steps to make things better - Product development is slow and dysfunctional because the leadership doesnt actually know whats going on. they are reactive + scrambling to have the appearance of productivity - product roadmap and sales pipeline is all built on a house of cards - the company is coasting on what has been built 20+ years ago. - the most toxic and political HR / "people" team ever. they would instill fear into teams by randomly showing up and "listening" - employee experience is not good - there is little communication about company strategy, employee changes, company direction. questions are asked on a routine basis only to get blown off with a political answer by leadership - no real career opportunities or advancement anymore. before, you were able to move up or across the organization. the new leadership has made that impossible, and feedback is not consistent or genuine
