Wonderful company that keeps on growing - Business Analyst Parsus Employee Review

I had almost given up looking for a place to do development that didn't burn out their employees with poorly managed workload. The culture at Parsus is very positive and shares my personal values. It is small company that works on big projects using a variety of technologies. Every project I have worked on has been completed different, interesting and challenged my skills as a developer. Plus, we go out for the best Pho every week at lunch :)

I haven't found one yet.

* Great learning opportunity * Work and project variety * Schedule flexibility - several employees work remotely and owners prioritize gym/exercise time in the afternoon * Ideal environment for the self-learner and problem solver * Minimal micromanagement and work autonomy * Owners genuinely care and are well-intentioned

* No upward mobility * Minimal collaborative work opportunities and social interaction - Parsus is a team of very strong individual and often introverted contributors so if you are a social butterfly with a strong need to communicate and collaborate, the work environment may not be ideal for you. * Lack of organizational structure - no detailed process or procedural documentation, no training materials, no formal mechanism for providing or receiving feedback. * No formal training - as a new team member you will be expected to hit the ground running and you'll need to figure it out and get it done asap. * Poor work/life balance - notifications require a prompt response and it is not uncommon to work outside of normal business hours. Regular overtime and constant availability is a work culture expectation.
