Pros

* If you are new in your career, you will learn quickly if you put in the work * Remote

Cons

* Expect mid-senior work for junior level pay, even if you're early in your career * Code base is buggy and not maintained very well * Leadership will always take the side of their partners over you * CEO doesn't act like a real leader * CTO is egotistical and will always stick to his narrative

Pros

Nothing to even write about here. Paychecks were always correct and on time…

Cons

Extremely poor management with zero structure. There is no onboarding or training process so you are just left on your own with the expectation you never ask any questions. Management is passive aggressive and condescending. Pay is also not the best and definitely not worth this headache. They will fire you for sticking up for yourself and calling out lies.

The worst company I've ever worked for

Pros

•The hiring process was excellent. Of course, the HR person who managed it is ironically now gone as well, which is bizarre as he was the best employee at the company by far. •Company paid benefits and unlimited PTO (which I doubt could ever truly be utilized based on the culture there)

Cons

•There have been almost as many employees terminated as hired. If you are constantly having to hire and replace employees, then your training, investment, and trust in your employees is broken. That's a leadership problem. •Daily standup meetings are bleak. No one looks like they want to be working there. I hardly saw anyone smile and when I did, it was usually fake. •There is much focus on negatives but very little on positives. The focus on the negatives is often inaccurate to begin with and lacking context. •Employees are set up to fail in that they are assigned positions with no direction or strategy and any self-starter initiative shown is met with pushback. If you then stick to the script, so to speak, you're questioned as to why you aren't making things happen on your own. You're literally damned if you do and damned if you don't. •The entire C-level team is under 30 and has very little real-world experience. They act like toxic narcissists and quite honestly, have no idea what they are doing. •The company has only survived thus far because of a small handful of RFP contracts and word of mouth business. They have yet to close a single, legitimate new business deal. •There is next to no focus on developing their website (which my neutral friends couldn't even decipher) or marketing content. This is absolute bonkers that such crucial pieces to a startup's growth are neglected. Schools have no idea who they are.
