Pros: Loved the people and the environment.
Cons: More busy at times, but it's the only real con.
4.0
Purpose, autonomy & mastery
Forward Deployed Software Engineer • Current Employee
Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
August 25, 2015
Pros: Transformative projects with customers who matter.
A-grade employees, driven towards material impact.
A very high degree of autonomy awarded to staff.
Cons: Resourcing - there are more opportunities than staff. Sometimes this means staff get stuck with one customer; sometimes it means that ownership can be lacking as staff move through a customer to fight a fire rather than truly fix an issue in a sustainable way.
Workforce is not especially diverse, despite everyone's efforts to address this.
Being in a branch office, it is sometimes hard to divine strategic and tactical vision. Conversely, we are given wide latitude to chart our own destiny.

Believed in the company, but not so much anymore because of its mistreatment of employees
Forward Deployed Software Engineer • Current Employee
New York, New York, United States
September 13, 2023
Pros: Fast-paced, very smart coworkers, and overall, the opportunity to grow is quite amazing.
Cons: No 401k matching, no bonuses, and no compensation increase with promotions or title promotions. Long work hours.
Life as a Forward Deployed Engineer can be technically unfulfilling. It took 2 years for a company-wide compensation review to happen, and only a fraction of the company got a raise then.
