Pros

A big pro is the ability to work from home.

Cons

You are often overworked and undervalued. They don’t like to give raises and often times unfairly rate you based off of who they like the most even if they say your work has been “extremely effective.” Especially if you are a yes man, rarely take vacation or sick days and are very good at your job that only gives them more reason to add more work for you while compressing your salary.

Pros

-Remote-first, WFH stipend, decent PTO, Great Place to Work Certified. -Not too woke for a CA company. -Recently went private which hopefully will be a good thing. -Good work-life balance, I never work more than 40/week. -If you like AI-assisted development, Github Copilot (for everyone) and Claude Code (for seniors) are provided. -They haven't had layoffs since 2024.

Cons

-Revolving door of upper leadership. Brand new CTO; who knows what he'll do? -Many dev teams are majority cheap offshore contractors. Minimal feeling of being on a team; I don't know most of my coworkers. No teambuilding activities. -Reliance on poor metrics like code coverage and velocity. Managing by metrics and dashboards. -Minimal salary raises. -CEO sends out motivational "rah rah" emails every Friday. -Disconnect between what developers are experiencing and what upper management thinks is going on. -Company is going "all in" on AI, and have unrealistic expectations of what AI can accomplish. Like they think they can get A-level work out of C-level developers through AI usage. AI fatigue is real. -Not all managers are emotionally intelligent or even technically adept.
