Vantaggi
- Work-life balance heavily favors life. - Benefits/salary are on the lower end for a quality tech company, but definitely in the quality tech range - Lots of competent people are leaving - plenty of responsibility and promotions up for grabs - Lots of team autonomy. Experience varies by team. There are some really smart people doing really interesting work - it's just hard to find - Excellent CTO trying to build a high-quality tech company. - Tech stack is pretty modern. Very few legacy systems following transition to microservices - Every 5 years, you earn a month-long sabbatical.
Svantaggi
- Good people leaving constantly. It's an exodus draining the company of talent - Rampant dead-sea effect. Long-time Vistaprint/Cimpress-ers getting influence beyond abilities as everyone else leaves. Frustrating the young talent away - Some feeling that the long-term strategy has been abandoned in favor of driving the stock price up after several quarters of disappointing stock price growth - Equity offering is poor - No peer reviews. Incompetent, politically-savvy people can find a niche and stay there - Waltham is being diminished in favor of cheaper overseas workers - Endless reorgs and layoffs. Good that leadership is willing to acknowledge mistakes, but no stability. - Vision is unclear. Not sure if we're still building a platform or if it would just be too embarrassing to abandon the name Mass Customization Platform
