Pros
-When it was Montage Talent there was an awesome engineering team that was fantastic to work with and a lot of fun. -I have formed many great friendships from when company culture was great, before the Riverside (PE Firm) acquisition.
Cons
-Riverside/Executive team turned a blind eye to dishonest and immoral behavior of certain leader(s) and refuse to acknowledge that it destroyed company culture of the Delafield office and has cause massive turnover in 2020 and 2021. Those events caused the leaving of the previous CEO and HR leader and later many other employees out of frustration. -Company has been falling apart for 1.5 years. Watching Riverside (private equity firm) decide that their bottom line cost is more important than a great product or building it the right way. Forcing their "formula" on a company they acquire instead of letting that company continue doing what they are best at doing. -Software quality has dropped off significantly once executive team/Riverside decided to push for offshore development to a company also owned by Riverside and tried having onshore development babysitting them. They keep trying to put lipstick on the pig instead of fixing the pig. -The last straw for a lot of people in Engineering was meeting all of our goals for the year but the executive team deciding we didn't deserve a raise or promotions but the following month we received congratulatory emails from other departments where people got promotions and raises.
