Vantaggi
I love programming. I program as a hobby outside of work. If this is you, you will probably like working at Applied - The work is really cool with fun tech stacks across the company - People are really nice! I genuinely like all of my coworkers a lot. - Extremely solid business - People are hard-working and intelligent: in previous roles, I felt like if I wanted something done well, I felt like I had to do it myself. Here I'm much more willing to trust other people with important work because the people here are actually good at their jobs. - It's not nearly as bad as the glassdoor reviews make it out to be - This company has an elite sales team so the work you do actually gets used (and makes the company money!)
Svantaggi
- Long-ish hours by tech standards: The workload isn't as bad as glassdoor would have you believe, but the standard is about 50hrs/week of work. I typically work 8:30-6:30ish and rarely work weekends. - Sometimes high pressure around deadlines - High expectations: if you're someone who wants to try to write the minimum amount of code as a software engineer and then move into a no-code management role as soon as possible, this isn't the place for you. People here need to actually be good and coding (this is a good thing!).
