Decent company, toxic team(s) - Software Engineer Diamond Web Services Employee Review

Great projects from big clients

It was bankrupt in 2022

I've worked with them on and off over the years. - Diamond pays at market rate or above. - They work with startups and large enterprise - Usually don't work with outdated tools and processes - The partners actually do lead and are decent people who treat people well and are always trying to learn themselves plus be local community leaders. - Leadership are extremely technical and know their stuff - The teams they put together are generally competent, knowledgeable and are not usually jerks. - They actually observe holidays even for contractors. They're one of the better businesses I've had the pleasure of being involved with in my career. To respond to another contractor's dismay at being dropped when there's no work. Yeah, that's kind of what goes with the territory of being a contractor (and even full time these days). It's not personal, it's business and they take people on according to role and demand. With that said, they hustle hard for work to keep their teams employed.

- They are a dev shop, so if you're looking for a branding agency, this may not be the place for you. Or maybe it is. - Team members are often remote. Which can be good or bad depending on your perspective. They're trying to change this and have people come on site at least part of the time to build a more of a team "culture". They generally don't force people to do this though and some can't of course, if they're across the country or the world. - There aren't tons of perks like massage, ping pong, etc.. Seriously though, if you need these, I don't know what to say... Competency and good leadership are more important in my opinion.
