Pros
I worked at a few start-ups and remote companies before I joined CodeSignal almost a year ago, and I just love this company and how it operates! A few things I value the most: - Culture. CodeSignal puts a great effort into hiring the best people not only suited for the job but the culture as well. If you are somebody who is eager, curious, moves fast, and takes initiative, this is a great place to be! I am not afraid to ask questions if I don’t understand something, because I know that everyone will support you and will appreciate you diving deeper. I also appreciate opportunities to connect with fellow Signalites both remotely and in person! - Virtual-first working. I was amazed at how well-structured and productive online working can be! The company is completely remote and has employees all over the world. There are a lot of tools for you to use and make your work efficient and collaborative. Remote-first culture also provides flexibility and a great work/life balance. - Mission. This is something that makes me excited when I wake up in the morning. The management (and everyone else) make sure you understand where we are heading and why we do this.
Cons
Not a con, but if you like a slow pace, being told step-by-step how to do your job, and a hierarchical way of working, it might not be the best fit for you.
