Pluspunten

- Great compensation package (healthy, dental, and vision) - Very lenient on taking vacation days - Some good talent around - Good team mentality

Minpunten

- Does not pay as well as other companies and is in the lower range even though they say they are at the higher range. This is false! - Work vs Life balance has gone down hill over the years. To much is expected of you even during off hours - Management has had many restructures over the past few years which hinders growth potential - Company is moving to fast and is spending money in the wrong places. Not with its employees - Company is not investing more into keeping above and beyond talent - Not a long term company to be with due to the above (2 -3 years is perfect)

Pluspunten

- lots of ownership - decent middle management - great teammates - learning a lot - older employees do tend to have competitive RSU grants and salaries

Minpunten

- tons of legacy systems (10+ years version of Ruby on Rails... 10+ years since some products or services were updated, 0 associated automation to help) - last 2y of leadership has brought on tons of reorgs & changes. Example - recommended PTO days quietly went down, got rid of lots of free snacks, anniversary gifts went down $100s of dollars, plenty of silent layoffs - Senior leadership is focused on 1 thing - getting the stock price up. Has no interest in supporting some of our legacy systems that can prop up new products. - new hires are not fitting into our culture. Inflated titles. Empire building. Awarded for submitting buggy AI Slop code. Encourage working on the weekends. Starting to get toxic.
