Experience at Groupon is phenomenal, if you can put up with long hours and political turmoil between teams
- Working with bleeding-edge/new and emerging technologies.
- Working alongside some of the industry's best talent.
- Very flexible work-from-home policy.
- Very long work hours.
- Not much process and standards around code development, deployment, project initiation, and execution.
- No mentoring and support around career growth and development. You're pretty much on your own to map out your career. You end up doing a lot of side projects on your own to get the experience you desire.
- No continuous education opportunities unless you confront management and explain to them you want training in some new technology other than just learning it on your own.
Hire more managers with MBAs to lead teams.
