Kool-Aid Salesman - Software Engineer Integral (MI) Employee Review

Leadership. There's a reason why basically no one is still at the company from its first 6 months of existence. While I was there it was upsetting to watch all of the people who took a GIANT leap of faith in the vision of the company never be trusted with real leadership decisions or be able to directly help grow the company. They all eventually left as people from the CEO's old company joined and were given trust above and beyond them. For my part, I generally believed in what was pitched to me by the CEO himself as the vision for what the company could and should be, but I ended up having to leave since that vision just was not what my day to day work experience ended up being after many promise to the effect that things will change. As for day to day work be prepared to not always pair program and practice TDD, but also advocate for them. They are a must/one size fit-all solution.
