Great company - Senior Software Developer Unicon Employee Review

Good place to work at and everyone was really nice and welcoming

No cons but it was all online which wasn’t my favorite as I like being in person with people

Flexible working schedules and conditions. Even before the pandemic working remotely was common. You don’t feel like someone is constantly checking in on you and your work. There are some really great people here. Kind, smart, family-first sort of people. Good benefits: They pay 80% of your medical insurance, 100% 401k match on the first 3% and 50% for up to 5%, you can work your way up to 5 weeks of PTO.

The company is slowly shirking which causes strain. To make it worse, the top performers keep leaving. There’s attrition equal to the lost revenue but it’s the wrong set of people leaving. There’s been a renewed focus on adding value through consulting instead of just transactional work. This sounds good, until you realize the reason this slipped was the company focusing on less important things like silly processes instead of keeping their best employees happy and doing great work for clients. They understand what they need to do but they’ve forgotten how to do it. The CEO used to always say the only two things you need to remember are, “Take Care of the Client and Take Care of Each Other” (TM). I can’t remember the last time I heard that. There’s almost zero opportunity for career growth unless you’re new in your career. The company stopped quarterly bonuses and annual CPI adjustments. They received a PPP loan, even though we didn’t shut down, but none of that money made its way into employee hands. The company is using it to renovate the office and pad the balance sheet.
