Pros
- Marketing Team dynamic is great, everyone is super friendly and easy to work with. - Company has a lot of potential to grow and be more than what it is now, I think if the company is able to keep a marketing team together and give the right tools they would be able to have a huge social media presence. - Company is great at keeping the entire facility clean! - As a developer you will have full flexibility on choosing whatever tech stack you wish. - Company was super flexible with my schedule since they knew I was still going to school, flexible until they weren’t. - Overall I think there is so much room for improvement, and this isn’t a bad thing. This company truly has potential to be something bigger than it is, ideas just get shot down to quickly.
Cons
- I feel like they don’t care about their employees as much as they say they do. Like any other corporate company they threw a pizza party when they had record revenue. - Entire company was banned from listening to music the first week i got hired and the CEO yelled at everyone, this was the only bad experience i had with the CEO but it definitely left a stain for the rest of my time there and set the tone on how they “trusted” their employees. - There is no yearly reviews or raises. Whatever you start at is what you will likely be at for years unless you become a lead. - The turn over rate is pretty big, I went through 4 different management leads within a year and a half and the marketing team dynamic went through many changes. - As a developer expect to be in a maintenance mode for a couple years. Your day will consist of doing small tasks. This was a big factor on why I left. I wasn’t seeing much professional growth nor were my true technical/programming skills were being utilized to its full potential. - At the end of the day, you will always just be another replaceable employee in the eyes of the company. - Lastly, I most definitely felt the pettiness from upper management my last working there, even though I stated I wanted to leave on a good note.
