Vantaggi

If you love warming a seat from 9 to 5 with no real goals or ambitions or expectations of doing anything then this is the perfect place for you. There are dogs in the office Benefits are pretty standard Food and drinks The occasional meetup/happy hour

Svantaggi

IF - You love software && - You love quality && - You love unit/integration/automated testing && - You love best practices && - You love CI/CD && - You love modern tech stacks && - You love team autonomy && - You love feeling like you're building something that matters && - You love having management that cares about your personal growth and development && - You love doing things the right way && - You love seeing all sides of the picture from tech to business value to customer impact/experience && - You love learning new things on the job THEN - Run! Just run! Run as far away as you can! This is not the place for you! You will die inside working here. It's not worth the pay bump. Trust me, I know -- I work here... and being here for so long, I'm literally un-hireable anywhere else due to my skills degrading so much. Get out before you get in. It's not worth it! ELSE - Welcome aboard! In a matter of moments you will have your soul crushed. Enjoy :) This is a tech company that has IPOd... yet there are no stock options, RSUs, etc... Oh wait one of the core operating principles is "Be Frugal"... ya, that will bite you... a lot. There is such a fear of change, that it is impossible to improve upon anything -- but at the same time, the code base is so old and so un-tested and literally relies on frameworks that have been unsupported for a decade that it is impossible to get code out the door... but we can't risk upgrading because that's too much risk. CD is a far off pipedream, we try to release once a week. In reality we are lucky to get 2 releases a month and rollbacks, hotfixes, etc. are prolific. I'm not even done ranting... but I've wasted too much time, so whatever, just don't do it.

Vantaggi

I am an artist and I get to do an art-related job. The schedule is flexible when things pop up. I get health insurance and 401k and a lot of free food, and there is free gym access in the office building. The people I work with are all generally very cool, friendly, and/or fun to work with.

Svantaggi

The pay rate is below the industry standard for production artists. I am not able to afford a place of my own. I live with my parents and I work another job to supplement my income. I am basically surviving and able to pay all my bills, but I would not be able to live a full life on my own with the pay rate as it is now. The work culture portrays itself as progressive and inclusive place but it is the typical corporate toxic environment.
