Pros

I left CenterEdge because of the pandemic troubles it suffered (or else I might still be there!) and I wrote a very detailed review while I was still employed with them. I wanted to add the note that I am still on the cutting edge of processes to improve testing, DevOps, and software delivery because of the tremendous education I received (in my not-so-young career) at CenterEdge. I attribute this primarily to the System Architect, and the freedom he has been afforded to drive these kinds of initiatives.

Cons

Every company has its challenges, but the cons at CenterEdge are petty in comparison to the career-altering learnings to be had.

Pros

CE grew from humble beginnings organically. They took no venture capital and are thus beholden to no one. They grew to where they are today living by the simple maxim, "Don't buy it if you can't afford it." It's such a simple concept, yet you never hear of a software company that thinks this way. CE is the exact opposite of a pump-and-dump. They've been around for 14+ years and their mission is to just keep doing what they do, which is being the leader in the recreational venue payments space. As an engineer, you'll be on one of two teams. You'll either be working on the client-side product that the users interact with day-to-day or the backend web services that do all of the coordination and integration with various third-party web services. Each team has its own pros and cons that are endemic to the kinds of products that they are. What you won't find at CE is a bunch of people running around with their hair on fire. This company takes work/life balance seriously. You also won't find a bunch of huge egos. Now if you walk in with one, you may get put in your place, because there's no shortage of competence either!

Cons

You should be aware that like any company that been around for 14+ years, the codebase is enormous and written with an inconsistent variety of tools and languages. So depending on what you're working on, you may run into some ghosts from Christmas past lurking around in there. If you're not based in NC, it can feel a bit isolating being 100% remote. The company operates on east-coat time and you're expected to conform with that which may mean having to attend a daily standup meeting at 7:45am or earlier...

Pros

It’s a small company, everyone knows everyone. You can talk with the higher ups as people not just a number. The software is huge and fun to learn. There is a lot of opportunity to grow and they promote from within.

Cons

It’s a small company, everyone knows each other and all of the higher ups are best friends. This makes it hard to make an impact sometimes with data rather than feelings.
