Pros

The staff and culture at FF are amazing. A genuinely warm and welcoming group.

Cons

A lack of leadership experience and an inability to support employees working for clients leads to chronic issues of crunch, burnout, and inappropriate firings. Add to that abysmally low wages and no effective performance reviews, and I would not recommend this employer.

Pros

Everyone is willing to learn and grow their skill sets. Opportunities to try new roles without backlash. Management cares about people. Care packages during Covid to make people feel connected during the out of office experience.

Cons

Singularly focused on web3 technologies. Massive layoffs when clients couldn't be found due to crypto's collapse.

Pros

The talent they hired when I was there was second to none. The Engineers and Team Leads were some of the brightest and most capable that I've seen in the industry.

Cons

Felt like upper management lacked the ability to pivot when necessary and as a result they laid off the majority of their employees, retaining what scraps of revenue they made for themselves. They put on a great show when it came to supporting professional development but when push came to shove they refused to compensate their employees for their experience.
