Pros

- People are nice and supportive, which makes it easy to learn a lot - Good engineering practices, though the actual tech is outdated - Solid WLB (at least in engineering, it's clear from the other reviews that's not the case elsewhere in the company)

Cons

- Excessive micromanagement being driven by out of touch executives. Every single task you do will be tracked in Jira - Salary is laughably low. They say they pay "market rate" but any other job in the area will almost certainly pay you more than they'll offer - Tech stack is overall outdated. Some teams are working with newer tech but it's a toss up overall. High chance of your skills rotting here, which can make it tough to get out - More emphasis on new features as opposed to actually trying to scale the business. Wheels are falling off when dealing with large scale because there's no investment in sustaining the product - Lots of outsourcing in engineering. Puts into question your job security

Pros

My team was very committed to our customers and very collaborative with each other. Everyone was kind to each other, and historically there had been opportunities for mentorship and career development.

Cons

Unclear expectations from leadership. We always felt like we were trying to play catch up with how things were changing. We also always felt like we were underpaid.
