Vantaggi
Fantastic downtown location with a new building almost completed steps to the lightrail. Complete autonomy to set your own work priorities. Flexible schedule to allow remote work location when needed. The company has a presence in the community with many volunteer opportunities. There are many career development opportunities to take advantage of.
Svantaggi
IT management is not visible or connected. Having complete autonomy is nice, but it also means you are on your own to remove any obstacles you may face. Feedback and one on one with immediate manager is almost zero. This makes it very hard to improve and drive change. Zero team building events in the time I have been here in IT. However, if you are in HR, corp finance, marketing, etc there are many team building events and outings. The company just started a 401k this year with a very low match that you only get at the end of the year. If you leave prior to the end of the year you do not get the match contribution and you do not get the benefit of compounding interest throughout the year.
