Pros

Lots of learning opportunities. Accommodating to situations inside and outside the workplace. Flexible. Lunches supplied everyday. Collaboration and discussion between developers encouraged. Your opinion matters. Time off for holidays.

Cons

Can be stressful at times, but very infrequent, usually only during crunch times. Sick time and vacation are shared.

Thank you for your feedback about the shared pool of sick and vacation time. I apologize that we did a poor job of explaining the benefits of it, when you first came on board. The idea behind having a shared pool for sick and vacation days, is that you can use your days however you want ,without being restricted to X number for sick and Y number for vacation...ie, your hours, your choice. We're trying to provide you more flexibility, so if you're not prone to getting sick, you get more vacation days. Also, as you now know we give everyone a week of paid time off between Christmas and New Years. In addition to that, as you also know, when everyone is caught up and there's a good opportunity, we like to give everyone surprise days off or short days. Yes, work can be stressful. It comes with the territory. Our customers and our agency partners expect a lot from us, and we're determined to always meet, and when possible, exceed their expectations. As you know, this job definitely requires a servant's heart.

Pros

- The quality of people at Engagency is top notch, in both skills and personality. It's very easy to work with the team, and everyone is willing to lend a helping hand if you have questions. Everyone looks out for each other. Regularly scheduled Happy Hours either in person or remote keep everyone in touch. - Excellent Project Managers. A project manager can make a developer work experience simple and straightforward, or needlessly confusing and frustrating. Project managers are selected carefully at Engagency and the scope of requested changes and timelines are always made very clear to me, as a developer. You are given the uninterrupted time to complete the work and not brought into distracting meetings where your time wasn't required in the first place. If you have questions, they are quick to respond and find any answers you need. - Being at Engagency will inevitably grow your skills and problem solving ability. As a developer I face interesting problems that call for creative solutions often. The "a ha" moments keep work interesting and rewarding. Clients and team express gratitude for your efforts.

Cons

No explicit cons that I can think of. But if you're looking to "hide" as some jobs at large companies allow for, I will say that this is not the right fit for you. You will be engaged and if you don't find that fun and exciting, another spot may be better for you.
