Pros

- good work/life balance - still remote-friendly for engineering - can find some good teams

Cons

- stock-based comp is virtually worthless these days - no real direction, lots of big, abstract ideas with no plan and no way to execute - leadership just reacts to the crisis-of-the-day instead of anything strategic - old tech, really too late to improve anything quick enough - lots of leaders promoted beyond what they're good at - C-level is useless and uninspiring, no real strategy, completely lost customer focus

Pros

Jamf, during my time there, was a really great place to be. I felt that the community and company culture were very supportive, and your responsibilities were clearly outlined. When I was hired, there was still a lot of fun to be had with the company. Offsites were great, team meetings were a lot of fun, and it made you want to sign in to work every day.

Cons

Towards the end of my time at Jamf, after a series of acquisitions, it was difficult to keep up with the different silos of technology we were responsible for as experts. Plus, compensation increases had largely gone away. It was difficult to get a promotion or raise, and towards the very end, there was a looming threat of a layoff over your head most of the time.
