Pluspunten

After reading some of the other (probably older) reviews I would have to say that management at this company seems to have come a long way. Incoming work is much more fleshed out and detailed so that exactly what is expected is known to everyone. The company is expanding their target user base as well as the number of people working here. The work atmosphere is very open and inviting and I feel like I can ask any question without being looked down on. The work is also challenging, not all the time, but most of the time, and new ideas are always welcome. People here are very interested in the work we do and are always looking to better the work we do, produce better products and make better experiences for customers.

Minpunten

From time to time the atmosphere can fall a little bit below the professional level and people can loose site of their tasks and get lost in conversation. But I would have to say that, to a degree, this can be refreshing when working long days and can help re-invigorate your work performance and interest.

Pluspunten

I think it is a great place to work with flexible hours, Wednesday snacks, company lunches, etc... Engineering group has excellent development processes in place including continuous integration, code reviews, and git for source code control. Development environment uses latest version of .NET, Visual Studio, modern C#, reSharper and the Atlassian suite of products (Stash, SourceTree, Jira, Bamboo, Confluence). The latest software being developed is using the leading technology: MVC, ASP.NET Web Api, jquery, angular.js, Twitter Bootstrap, less.

Minpunten

Sales driven company means that custom projects are often included in the product sale. This can impact the engineering focus. Need to support old product versions/technology like ASP.NET WinForms and WebForms.

Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback! We recognized that customer projects were taking up a lot of resources from engineering, so we have been actively growing our engineering team to accommodate. We're happy you had a positive experience overall!

Pluspunten

Really flexible hours, fun company lunches and activities, free Wednesday breakfasts, and etc. are all great perks! One thing I really loved about DatStat was that it was a very open and fun environment to work - it is a great learning environment where people are willing to teach you new ideas, skills, and concepts that you didn't know about. I left because I went back home for a 3-month summer vacation, but for college students/young people especially, DatStat is the perfect part-time job or internship experience - you get to determine your hours, the pay is great, and you learn a lot while having fun (also free food and coffee).

Minpunten

When I first started there wasn't really an in-depth training protocol for new employees so it was hard to fully dive in to your work (while understanding the company's mission), but in the past few months they've improved that heavily for new (and current) employees - so there's a lot of great change taking place.
