Vantaggi

Sometimes I feel like I'm the least talented engineer at the company. Flock consistently hires the most talented, inventive engineers in the industry. I give credit to an extremely well built product and a very healthy engineering culture that promotes ingenuity and flexibility over extreme hours and insane deadlines. I can't speak for the non-engineering divisions, but compensation and work-life balance are top notch. Best in Atlanta. I've never been able to say this about any company, but the engineering division has no dead weight in my opinion. Everyone contributes meaningful and visible work to the product and company. I also appreciate the transparency that management provides. It's not a secret where the company stands financially and where the company is headed.

Svantaggi

Management expects consistent growth and results. Everyone has a conspicuous, highly visible domain that they control. For better or for worse. Company values and marketing tend to appeal to pathos more often than appealing to objectivity. Sometimes it feels like the company culture is a competition to be the most passionate about the company culture.

Vantaggi

Steady hours and solid experience building out regional tracking networks. You get to work independently on the ground most of the time.

Svantaggi

Massive scope creep with zero additional compensation. They increased the physical labor requirements significantly—shifting from digging standard 30-inch holes to digging 42-48 inch deep holes reinforced with rebar and four bags of concrete—while keeping the pay exactly the same.On top of that, logistics are awful. They closed down local supply hubs, forcing massive weekly driving distances just to fetch basic equipment, yet scheduling was so uncoordinated it took them weeks to stop assigning full workloads on supply-run days.Supervisors act like mindless "company men." I was left on read while experiencing severe heat exhaustion symptoms in 100+ degree heat just so a supervisor could check daily production metrics. They treat field techs like disposable machinery, expect brutal days with hours of exhausting driving through remote territories, and offer zero operational support. Even after you leave, offboarding is broken; internal IT support analysts ignore their own logistics vendors, leaving automated systems to spam former employees for weeks about equipment they don't have.
