Pluspunten

- The hiring process was quick and the interviews were not excessively difficult. A lot of fresh graduates can get hired here. - Salaries are quite good, and you can clearly see progress towards promotions and raises. - Good amount of diversity in the workplace. - There are a lot of employee benefits such as discounts, stock grants, catered lunches, etc. - Coworkers and direct leadership were polite and friendly. - I personally didn't have to work egregious amounts of overtime, but it depends on your team. - The tough environment makes you feel like you can handle future jobs better

Minpunten

- From what I have observed, projects are poorly planned and timelines are unreasonably short even when there's little benefit to customers. Developers are usually not consulted when setting deadlines. Clean, long term solutions are not prioritized. - Technical infrastructure is extremely unstable, convoluted, and frustrating to work with. Many senior developers who know how stuff works have left. - Training and documentation for developers is outdated and lacking in many areas. Most of your learning has to be done the hard way. The company does say it is working on this. - The company fires as prolifically as it hires. You may get let go suddenly for something that isn't your fault, for protecting your health and safety, because of company reorganization, or for not meeting unrealistic expectations. - Expect most specs from Product to be incomplete and full of mistakes, and to have to contact them many times to answer simple questions. Like most employees, they're trying their best, but their workloads are not sustainable. - There is a lot of bureaucracy and processes that slow work down. New tools or technologies typically take years to integrate or are rejected for questionable reasons. - The company makes frequent huge changes to its processes and policies that are not well communicated, and often make employees' lives harder.

Pluspunten

- Base salary - PTO - Awesome colleagues - $1 Medical PPO offering

Minpunten

- Upper leadership seem to not value the operations department as much as they do with sales. They are not consistent as well, which causes them to change the entire department's job description, expectations, & commission structure every few months. Change is good but huge change every 3-4 months is so exhausting. - They overload you with too many clients to handle while increasing the number of internal calls. When asking for support from sales or middle management, its typically a hard negotiation or non-existent. Expect to work way over 40 hours/week and juggle 10-20+ clients at a time. - Sales will oversell on product & implementation expectation which makes the job 1000% harder. Turnover with sales is extremely high so don't expect for even the best reps stay as they either leave, get fired because quota was not met, or the new manager will cut them if they're "not the vibe". You get left with the newbies who does not know how to sell or support you when you need them. - Every role in this company has high turnover in general. Making it very hard to cross collaborate with other departments as everyone is either extremely swamped or new to the role and cannot support as well, - Being forced to go to Oklahoma for training every year, sometimes twice a year.
