Ok, first job, awful in all other respects
Software Developer • Former Employee
Fort Worth, Texas, United States
November 15, 2025
Pros: Decent full-stack experience in an enterprise environment.
Good for a first job, but there is no reason to ever stay more than two years, no matter what a manager tells you.
Cons: Low pay; annual raises are well below inflation.
Bad leadership focused on outsourcing.
Management will lie to you about opportunities to keep you working.
Company leadership fundamentally does not believe in itself.
Misuse, low focus, and misguidance of developers.
Company was bailed out twice and then outsources work while being entirely staffed by H1Bs. Generally low moral character among middle and upper management.
