Pros

Network Ninja is an amazing place to work, for many reasons. The company is fully remote, so all of us work from home across various time zones. This affords a huge amount of flexibility for personal appointments during the day and schedule adjustments as needed. Our vacation policy is also casual-- if you want a break, take one! The benefits are generous, including multiple health plans to choose from, dental, 401k with match, as well as equipment to help you get your work done (brand new MacBook Pros and monitors for example). You will be surrounded by co-workers who are intelligent, funny, talented, and compassionate and have a wide variety of different interests (just check the "Who we are" page on the website). There is a great mix of employees who have been around for years, as well as newcomers who are helping us to expand our offerings and abilities. I've worked with two of the teams (Collaborate and MainEvent) and while each team has a slightly different dynamic, they both have exactly what you want in a development position: a good balance of working hours, technical challenges, great leads/managers who treat their employees well, and an understanding that you are an adult who can get their work done and manage their own time-- no micromanaging here! It's very easy to ask questions or find another developer to bounce ideas off of when you are stuck on a hard problem. We do a lot of group brainstorming and troubleshooting-- no need to be afraid to speak up if you need assistance. Senior Management is very present and actively involved. They sit in on team meetings, message you to give kudos or ask how things are going, and they want to make sure your experience at Network Ninja is the best they can deliver. It's is very satisfying to work for a company that cares so much about their employees.

Cons

I can honestly say I don't have any cons to add. This has been an excellent experience so far.

Pros

I have been working at Network Ninja, more specifically on the Main Event side of operations for about 2.5 years now. It is impossible to write down all of the pros and positives about this wonderful company, but I will do my best to consolidate the big ones here! Where can I even get started - the software itself, the fellow coworkers, and our clients are all the reasons to come back to work with a smile on my face each morning. The colleagues I work with everyday are some of the most kind hearted, down to earth people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. Regardless of the time of day, someone will be around to jump in and assist wherever it is needed. Although the team may be small, everybody is extremely positive, knowledgable and overall jack-of-all-trades. Even though we all are spread across the globe, the comradery that makes a good company great is more than prevalent. The software itself is extremely unique, and working with clients allows us to, on a daily basis help tackle specific, client/brand related items. My favorite part of each day is hopping on a weekly call with a client, and discussing how we can make their site better, and ultimately propel their brand name further into the world. Each client is vastly unique, so it keeps my job very eventful and fresh! All things considered, I could not ask for a better company to work for. NNI has treated me as family since I first started, and I look forward to continue to build these relationships and grow the company for years to come! P.S. Andy is the best boss in the world.

Cons

The only downside of working for Network Ninja is we do not meet in person very often. I did have the wonderful opportunity to go to the EMS Conference in Las Vegas last April, which was an awesome experience. Any more opportunities like I will jump on! Understood the company is 100% remote, so meeting up once or twice a year is much easier said than done. However - if we could have an annual get-together, that would be awesome.
