Pros

Good technical and QA teams

Cons

The people who is supoused to pay, doesn't pay, is non-existant after 2 months, when they appear to lose all interests in you and if you try to contact them, they enter in an automatic mode where all the responses are either "We are very busy" or "Sorry, we are very busy". After 3 months of sending emails and recieving the same response you can tell that they doesn't care about you, your job, you pay, or anything close to that. I know that you think that continue doing your job will make a difference, they will see it and will pay you eventually, they will not, trust me, I have been there. Regarding the job, you can't work well when the dead lines are randomly created, the some Managers doesn't do his job whithout blaming others for his responsabilities and fails (mostly developers) and the people in charge of the product is absent, you need it to know/guess how they want their product done, if you do it well, they get the reward, if not, you are the one to blame. The technologies are highly outdated, they doesn't believe in the concept of "relational database" but highly believe that they can do that anyway and you must do it in the same time. This beautiful place named Viridis is some challenge. Be aware, but if you like this kind of things.. enjoy it maybe is one of the few places where you can fully achieve this sort of things.

Pros

Meaningful work; Cutting-edge technology & analytics; Killer team; Highly-engaged clients (including college systems, government and national employers); Rapid-fire, GSD atmosphere.

Cons

Small (but rapidly growing) company---actually a net positive (rather than a con)---means core team is spread thin

Pros

Work remotely Good technical leadership Relatively easy problems to solve, but always trying to meet unrealistic deadlines

Cons

Working long hours to meet arbitrary deadlines The CEO is a complete jerk and used to force us to build things on a whim when they weren't in the roadmap Most unprofessional leadership team (excluding technical leadership) I've ever seen The existing code base is one of the ugliest I have ever seen Frankly I'm not sure how this company is still alive
