Wages are not competitive - Intern Software Developer Avercast Employee Review

Lovely people, beautiful workplace, and a boss that cares

Communication could be better Growing pains

I have been here about a year and a half. A lot has changed in that time, and I believe it is for the good. -Free Soda and use of Kurig (both coffee and chocolate pods provided) -Birthday parties for everyone (interns included) -I have been to two Christmas parties, both were amazing. Prime Rib diner for the first, and for the second party the whole office got treated to diner and a movie (Hibachi Grill and Star Wars) -If you ask questions, you can learn anything. People are very open to conversation and suggestions. -Business trips are rare, but they are also productive and enjoyable. (Especially if Jason goes because he knows all the good restaurants) -New software coming out soon will put us ahead of the game. -It was nice that after being here full time for a bit over a year, that they decided to give me a monthly bonus to help with my privately purchased health insurance, even though they didn't have to. -Avercast has not been around that long, so I get to feel like I am helping the team build something new from the ground up.

The pay is a bit low compared to what a college professor might suggest as a starting rate, but for South East Idaho it is about what I have seen everywhere else except for the INL. But I like not being on government contract. Also, since this is a relatively newer company, I feel like the pay out will be in the long run, after it builds up and thrives.
