Pros
  • Great culture
  • Wonderful team dynamic
  • Excellent benefits
  • Sense of making an impact
  • And again a greater culture

Having loved their products before I started working here I can say the simplicity and care is exactly what it is behind the scenes. In the time I've worked here I feel heard and I have learned a lot, and what's crazy is that I feel respected which has been hard to find in companies as of late.

Cons

There's only one, and it's that the work is fast paced, and similar to a startup. A lot of what we do/work on isn't a known fixed issue and a lot of the times you're stuck trying 10 thousand things to see what works and what doesn't.

This might be a con to some, and a pro to others (I'm in the pro category) but I thought I'd list it here.

Advice to Management

Work on more concise requirements, but past that keep giving trust in engineers and fostering the culture because it's amazing!
