Pros

Trint has a few interesting challenges on the technical front in the core product focusing on real-time solutions, a good place to gain some experience.

Cons

You'll often hear leadership try to justify dropping the ball on critical decisions but deride mistakes, posturing between: "we're a startup" and "we're no longer a startup". There are different standards of accountability, and speaking truth to power in the self-proclaimed flat structure is not welcome. Meetings are held at the leadership level making big decisions without much influence from their subordinates. Trint markets its image with carefully crafted messaging to the employees and the outside world attempting to foster the image as a "disruptive" tech company, however, product innovation has been stifled by chronic lack of investment in engineering and product research. A large section of the company is a collection of individuals close to burning out. For every engineer hired, it appears that there's an unspoken rule that 3 BDRs or sales reps must be hired too. The focus shifted to building the brand and chasing big contracts, customer support is now under the remit of marketing, reducing any bar for technical competency and accountability.

Pros

The teams are quite competent It is a social company with great rapport and so collaboration in work is easier

Cons

A smaller number of employees so the work load is heavier with not many who will have similar expertise to lean on This can also lead to pressure moments in a quarter where a lot is asked and not much is appreciated
