Pros

Excellent Opportunity to grow in your career, many roles that are needed don't exist yet so you have the opportunity to create them. Systima works on some awesome projects and knowing that you are contributing to space exploration is a huge plus Systima's employees are awesome!! So many wonderful and interesting people work at Systima and there are many clubs for all sorts of hobbies. The building is in a beautiful location that overlooks the sound/Whidbey Dog Friendly office Bonuses are nice Lots of Paid Holidays

Cons

Workload is overwhelming most of the time, you likely will be working the job of 2-3 roles while only having one on your job description/pay and pay for the role is low compared to the state average... Since many folks are overworked, the responsibility of something that should NOT be your responsibility may fall on you to you to complete or it will never be completed With the company growing rapidly a lot of time will be spent doing something the fastest way instead of something that scales well so the work will need to be redone in the near future. This is something that is improving but nonetheless has burned me many times in the past. PTO is rolled into Sick time so you either go to work sick, work extra the rest of the week, or lose vacation. Systima does not spend enough money on things that make quality of life better, e.g. Computers, Equipment, Services, People.

Pros

Wonderful work-life balance with 9/80 schedule, and flexibility to work from home occasionally if you are sick or have something unexpected arise. The work itself is challenging and interesting, and the industry is stable at the worst of times, and taking off like crazy recently.

Cons

This is a small company transitioning into a larger one, so some of the kinks are still being worked out. It isn't uncommon to find yourself being a trailblazer on work that would be boilerplate at a more established company.
