Pluspunten

There are some really smart people here.

Minpunten

Run far, far away! The smart people at BSD are mostly left over from when this company was good ~4 years ago. Unfortunately most of them are stuck at below-market salaries working around a colossus of technical debt being micromanaged by senior execs. There is no real bonus structure, and the health insurance sucks. BSD is a company with a few hundred people, yet it has all the politics, drama, and bumbling incompetence of a company one hundred times the size. There's also the issue of clueless senior technical management. There is no CTO anymore, and the people who are allowed to guide the technical conversation at the top are incompetent. A power play gone wrong has resulted in the slow starving of the SaaS Tech side of the house, complete with "Indian outsourcing companies will save us!" and all the hilarity that ensues. Because BSD hasn't invested in more than basic maintenance of existing tech for years, competitors like ActBlue are starting to eat BSD's lunch. If you're a smart technical person who wants to get things done the right way, BSD will be a kafkaesque nightmare for you. The destruction is accelerating. Run.

Amazing coworkers Decent benefits Work from home Cool clients doing huge projects

Minpunten

This place will suck the life out of you. After a few questionable upper management decisions, layoffs had really run this place below ground. Beforehand, though, was a clear indicator of things going downhill. Teams burnt out and stretched thin. Project managers doing their best to accommodate, despite being stretched thin themselves. Upper management not doing anything to help. There is one review I read here during my first few months that stated this place is sexy and promising on the outside but the opposite inside and now I can see why. You will be micromanaged and gaslit into thinking you are a terrible worker here. Little to no real professional advice, they literally just expect you to do 12 hours of work in 8 hours (not to mention the insane amount of unpaid overtime you’ll be doing). Steer clear of this place (at least until the figure their sh** out)
