Pros

Great career opportunities for relatives of a manager or fellow church members. Downtown location. Free credit monitoring. Nice salaries (offset by poor health care benefits and paid vacation/holiday package).

Cons

High turnover! Continuous pattern of hiring sprees, and then firing. Value statement may exist but the organization and culture doesn't live by the value statement. The value statement is used primarily as a recruiting and marketing ploy. Some of the managers and directors have created hostile work environments and a culture of favoritism. If you try to raise concerns of inappropriate behavior to VPs or higher up, your direct management retaliates. Excessive frivolous spending, lack of discipline and strategic investment in the future. Out-dated product technology; updating technology has been a secondary priority to the excessive hiring of unnecessary administrative positions, brand new office space, and big bonuses and perks for senior leaders.

Pros

- The company feels essentially like a new company (startup-like) but with existing money in the bank to fund growth of the refined vision and new product. - Good for career growth and plenty of opportunities to pick up new skills and responsibilities. For me, personally, this has been a good place to grow leadership skills. - Interesting and exciting product (CrossChannel™ Platform is the one I work on) and SaaS development - The cloud engineering teams utilize modern technologies and practices like Kubernetes, infrastructure-as-code, Docker, Google Cloud Platform, monorepos, Python, Java, etc. - Development is not hindered by slow release cycles. We utilize a form of Scrumban as our product development methodology. - Intelligent, fun, and pleasant co-workers - CEO is attentive when you talk to him, regardless of your role. This was a drastic change from my time at IBM where even my director was less attentive than AllClear's CEO. - Flexibility with work/life balance - Travel opportunities, especially to the other office in Oslo, Norway - Pay is competitive - Nice office

Cons

- In the current stage of the company, you will need to wear multiple hats, which can be a con for some. - It took longer than I think it should have to re-focus the company into the current direction and product, but as of now it's going in the right direction and trend. - Need to be comfortable with the risks and unknowns of a company/startup with a runway - Sales team is in very early stages
