Pros
- The company feels essentially like a new company (startup-like) but with existing money in the bank to fund growth of the refined vision and new product.
- Good for career growth and plenty of opportunities to pick up new skills and responsibilities. For me, personally, this has been a good place to grow leadership skills.
- Interesting and exciting product (CrossChannel™ Platform is the one I work on) and SaaS development
- The cloud engineering teams utilize modern technologies and practices like Kubernetes, infrastructure-as-code, Docker, Google Cloud Platform, monorepos, Python, Java, etc.
- Development is not hindered by slow release cycles. We utilize a form of Scrumban as our product development methodology.
- Intelligent, fun, and pleasant co-workers
- CEO is attentive when you talk to him, regardless of your role. This was a drastic change from my time at IBM where even my director was less attentive than AllClear's CEO.
- Flexibility with work/life balance
- Travel opportunities, especially to the other office in Oslo, Norway
- Pay is competitive
- Nice office
Cons
- In the current stage of the company, you will need to wear multiple hats, which can be a con for some.
- It took longer than I think it should have to re-focus the company into the current direction and product, but as of now it's going in the right direction and trend.
- Need to be comfortable with the risks and unknowns of a company/startup with a runway
- Sales team is in very early stages
