Pros

None that I can think of

Cons

This is what actually happened to me here. I was hired on as a web developer, and fired after THREE-AND-A-HALF DAYS, because I didn't know two Git and Node. Git can be learned in a couple of hours. They never said I needed to know Node before I came on board. I hadn't even had a chance to write one line of code before being called into a conference room and told I didn't have the skills for the job. This is not disparagement, just a 100% true account of my experience at SocialCare. I'll let you make your own mind up.

Pros

I've been an employee for almost two years, and this is an awesome company! I've worked for many companies where management said their employees are their largest asset, but this is the first company I've worked for where they actually walk the walk. The leaders bend over backwards for us, and they constantly keep everyone updated with what's going on in the business. It's a very unique place. What I love most about the company is that software is our product, and everyone here has taken advantage of the opportunity to contribute their ideas and unique skills to our success. We are still a small company with a family-like atmosphere and everyone works well together. Working here is very exciting, because the healthcare industry is going through some major positive changes right now. We are all focused on building a world-class platform and applications that are going to make a difference in the world. Technology-wise it's a great place to learn and try new things, and everyone has a say in our technology direction.

Cons

Being a start-up that's highly focused on the product, we didn't have anyone focused on recruiting until recently. I think that caused a couple glitches early on. It's weird to read negative reviews, because that's not what we are like at all. I think having some talented people in charge of recruiting like we do now, we will be able to represent ourselves publicly like we know we are internally.
