Pros

Work from home is the only Pro that I've seen here.

Cons

There are lot of Cons. Below are few which are important for developers. 1) There is NO concept of work life balance here. they always try to give us the work and ask us to finish within short time. 2) No proper planning of user stories. They ask for changes after we started development and the best thing is 'They don't want to change the estimate for those reworks./changes'. So we need to work day and night to finish that. 3) Lot of work pressure. Some team members stay till late night and they will also expect us to stay awake like them. 4) They don't give KT by the way and code was not well defined while they started development and we literally need to depend on another existing employees to understand and they are obviously busy all the day. 5) Management will conduct more meetings and try to explain how business is growing and how many hirings are happening but no-one wants to talk about work life balance and all they want is product needs to be delivered within short time. 6) I don't see any latest tech stack, it is all about normal dot net project. So at the end of the day, you won't get any new technical knowledge. 7) QA's won't test complete feature when we release it to QA. they will test everything before last minute of delivery and try to raise more issues/suggestions and we are in hurry to fix those will result to another bugs. 8) Nobody wants to take blame if anything got delayed and everyone tries to push that to developers. We can think of joining this company, If you are willing to work late nights and can able to take more pressure and willing to loose personal life.

Pros

Culture, growth, income, benefits, and more!!!

Cons

Challenges and struggles throughout upper leadership related to startups typical issues, as Outplay finds it's footing to step into the next stage of blast off. Furthermore, there is a tendency for most of the team to 'push' themselves, and in some instances, leaders to their team(s), to go a little further. This is to be expected and can good in moderation. Often even necessary as a start-up. But for some, it can lead to burn-out and related issues.

Pros

Culture, growth, compensation, benefits, advancement opportunities, and frankly, too many to list. You'll have to join to find out the rest.

Cons

As an up and coming startup, there are always growing pains. These are typically in the areas of change and change management. So far, Outplay seems to have a good grasp on this risk and has excellent leadership in place to address and mitigate accordingly. Opportunity for improvement exists in the onboarding process for development within your specific role. I feel it could be a bit more formal and structured. Outside of that, nothing that isn't common for a company at this stage of growth.
