Pros
- Incredibly smart, talented employees that believed in sharing knowledge. I learned a lot from them. - Interesting work - Lots of room for professional growth for motivated people. Great place for jacks of all trade. - Cool office space in a great location. Lots of fun events hosted there.
Cons
- Work/life balance was a company value on paper, but when push came to shove, the expectation was that employees would work long hours, weekends, etc. to meet delivery deadlines. - These acts of heroism were often thankless. - Too much time invested in winning contracts with small profit margins. These clients did not value our work. - Leadership utilized a predominantly negative feedback model without positive feedback for balance. - Controlling leadership. They held contempt for personal autonomy and punished attempts to flex it.
