Pros
When it’s was theScore, led by John Levy, everything was great. An ultra talented engineering team, that’s always pushing for a bleeding edge app. From Product management, designers, and engineers everyone is a joy to work with and rock solid people, an extremely collaborative environment. The development process was very structured and made it very easy to work. Everyone knows what they’re doing and goals/expectations are known.
Cons
After the Levy family exited the company and turned over management to Penn Entertainment it’s been downhill ever since. The vibes within the company have completely changed. There’s just been one bad decision followed by another. The C-suite don’t know what they’re doing. They don’t have a product vision and don’t know the industry. It’s just copy cat DK and hope to gain market share. Every quarter is meet with business failure and then a round of layoffs. The team was large and exciting but has now been dwindled down to small and people fearing for their jobs. They won’t be able to push as hard as before, but should be below cost now, maybe only another 2 round of layoffs coming in the spring I suspect. Also in terms of career growth, I would say none on the engineering side. It does depend on what team you land on, but overall there’s not a lot of career progression here.
