Pros
High salary (that's often delayed) with health benefits (that's deducted from your salary). Good career opportunities to those who are great in office politics.
Cons
I would advise anyone who is considering applying at ScaleNorth to think again. My experience has been tough, filled with tension, where I often felt on edge. One of the main issues is job security. There's a high turnover rate, with some long-term employees leaving. From an employee's perspective, the reasons for terminations might seem trivial—ranging from bringing your spouse to a company event to your manager not liking you. This, in turn, creates a stressful work environment (look up "quiet firing"). In my experience, teamwork was nearly non-existent, and office politics were too prevalent. It felt like who you knew was more important than what you were capable of doing. Since many of the hires are through referrals, it may be tough to integrate if you're not already connected. While the salary was competitive, it came at a cost to my work-life balance and well-being. Salary delays were also a recurring issue during my time there, adding to the stress. The fear of sudden termination or feeling pressured to resign due to tough work conditions was a constant concern for me and many of my colleagues. While the high pay might be attractive, I'd encourage potential applicants to carefully weigh all factors. Consider whether the salary aligns with your priorities for career growth, stability, and personal well-being.
