Pros

Vivint has a great career ladder with a lot of opportunities for growth. Developers are given freedom to propose and implement new ideas, grow their skillset, and stay up-to-date with the latest and greatest.

Cons

There is A LOT to learn when you start at Vivint about the 100+ microservices that run the backend and the documentation is lacking. Asking questions and talking to other engineers is your best bet at getting over this hump.

Pros

There is free lunch on site, which is usually just a hamburger, or some sort of shredded meat on rice and beans.

Cons

There is increasing amounts of corporate red tape personal biases which have killed the innovative culture. Getting things like a half decent computer are near impossible. There is more and more pressure to take quality shortcuts in order to make cheaper devices to hawk to customers.
