Pluspunten

Base pay is fairly competitive for new grads Great team culture Good software standards to learn as a new grad Work-life balance is smooth

Minpunten

CEO is out of touch Company once tried to add diversity/inclusive language into its product; this was quickly rolled back and never re-added despite promises to do so. Projects are typically top-heavy; less input from individual engineers about project direction Disorganized roadmap Product is heavily engineering-focused, so the company often moves forward with tech ideas even if it's not beneficial for real users

Pluspunten

- Depending on the team, you can have a good work/life balance - Given they hire a lot of new grads who are building a community in the area, it's pretty easy to get involved in social groups and make friends in the office

Minpunten

- Depending on the team, you may have poor work/life balance - Top-down culture - many typical responsibilities a given role would have (at least in engineering or product) in other companies are separated out. While not necessarily good or bad, it can catch people who are used to more autonomy in their decisions off-guard - Slow growth trajectory in roles and experience / learning which can be unfortunate for those starting off in their careers - Immature feedback / leveling loop - It was fairly common that people got feedback or temperature checks from more casual conversations with peers or other teams rather than formal reviews or manager conversations
