Rapid7

• Brilliant engineering managers who give timely feedback, mentor well and keep you in the loop
• Amazing events organized by Workplace Experience Coordinators
• Great higher level management
• Engineers are given time and resources to address technical debt
• No micro-management; what matters is the work you deliver
• Very flexible work-hours; as long as you attend your meetings and get your work done, no questions are asked
• Realistic expectations meaning amazing work-life balance and low stress; if you so choose it (there's always more work to be done)
• Great testing approach (TDD) which means high velocity and confidence in product along with frequent deployments
• Great compensation and benefits: RSUs with frequent vesting, ESPP, yearly bonus, good life/health insurance, pension plan with great employee matching on contributions
• Generally all great engineers in the office (few bad apples who have no attention to detail or aren't good collaborators or sadly both)
• Engineers own the technical side, if you want to change anything you can as long as you get your pull request reviewed

• There's a lot of legacy components and a lot of work to be done to be able to scale more efficiently and addressing technical debt
• Office politics: if you're not liked by a clique of people at the top you're probably screwed, you'll have a toxic employment and have people talking behind your back, there's certainly a few people you want to avoid as much as possible

Keep up the great work!
