Strong Technology Focused Company
Strong Technology Focused Company
With both co-founders having backgrounds in engineering, there is a strong engineering focus that permeates through the company. While there are certainly occasions where you just need to get things done and out the door, you do get the opportunity to go back and make sure things are built logically and scalably for the future.
There is also a strong culture that encourages group outings or get-togethers with coworkers. There is also a good work-life balance. Plus, as long as your manager is OK with it (most are), you can work from home whenever you need to.
It's an open environment, no cubes, no offices. This does make everyone feel equal with each other, but if you want to have a private phone conversation for any reason, it can be a little annoying.
There's not always a lot of transparency on what projects are coming up and what the priorities really are. I realize that if no news can be good news, but a bit more clear leadership would be nice.
