Software Engineer • Current Employee
Pros: Smart, hardworking colleagues who make time to answer questions have helped me grow immensely as a software engineer.
An atmosphere of progress instead of blame – the question when things go wrong is "How do we fix it?" rather than "Who did this?".
Plenty of interesting projects and room for growth, though I caution anyone unfamiliar with enterprise software: projects take a lot more time when you can't release a hacky version, as customer trust is valued incredibly highly here.
Great teams across all functions of the company make me proud to work here. Sales does not lie to customers, Marketing shows honest numbers, and Ops has not faltered one bit in the face of meteoric growth.
Cons: You have to work hard. Work-life balance is hard during crunch times. They don't happen often, but I do wind up sacrificing some of my personal life to get the job done. It's software; nothing new here.
We don't change teams/projects as often as before.
