Pros

* most people are friendly * snacks and food are available for you (mostly healthy stuff tho) * free beer * weekly lunches * your choice of equipment * great pay compared to other companies * many chances to dig into other parts of the stack * game room * book allowance

Cons

* interview was a breeze, actually too easy which makes for some questionable hires * total brodeo, many who work there act like they are part of a fraternity at times .. this is mostly in sales and marketing * weird cult like chants said at every lunch * tech stack is totally crap with questionable choices spread through every turn -- any suggestion to make this better is met by push back from old heads who think they know everything (they don't) * some seniors have massive egos * "planning" is a joke, no real deep dive into the issues just a surface conversation * no meetings on architecture concerns * deployment architecture and strategy is hot garbage * issue tracking is god awful * boring problems to solve * healthcare is pretty average, salary sort of makes up for it

Appreciate the feedback. Since your time at Terminus, a few things have remained constant (friendly environment, great perks, and a focus on employee development); but so much has changed too... I’m proud to share that our product team has scaled up processes, redefined our release schedule, and moved to a new framework for working on refinements to the existing platform. We will continue learning, growing our product, and adding quality talent to keep momentum going.
