Nice, until it wasn't

Software Developer • Former Employee

Pros: Fully remote work was allowed for me until it wasn't.

Cons: I had a boss, technically, but in the two years I worked there, not once did I talk to him. For the vast majority of my time here, I had ZERO work. Nice at first, getting paid to do nothing? Score. But inevitably you get assigned, and are expected to hit the ball running. As I got this job out of college, I had no experience. I tried my best to do what was asked, but no one, either at Cap or my assignment (Fidelity), acted like they wanted to help. In the whole time I was without assignment, all I was told is "Learn, keep your skills sharp." That's great and all, but in programming, that's not NEARLY enough direction. What language? What parts of it?
