Vantaggi

I come into work early and leave work late, not because it's expected but because I enjoy the day-to-day work, projects I work on, and environment I work in. I work in a technical role and managers I work with are very technical minded, understand the problems that need to be solved, and provide the resources to solve the problems while also challenging the teams to find clever and efficient ways of completing the tasks. This can save money and also results in fulfilling work with interesting challenges to take on. Fair compensation and enjoyable working environment with lots of social perks. Minimal corporate bureaucracy.

Svantaggi

Fast moving tech company with many technically minded managers is good in some areas but is a weakness in many other areas. There can be lack of communication between teams and groups, leading to overlapping toolsets, inefficient use of compute resources/hardware, and support teams such as Ops and IT support are left to figure out how to run things often with not much help.

Vantaggi

Great benefits: Healthcare had great coverage and affordable monthly payments. I also really appreciated the work-from-wherever policy as well as all the office snacks. Fantastic people: I genuinely loved the people I worked with—they made me feel like I belonged and was appreciated. My manager worked to build me up, something that can't be said for a lot of places. Travel perks: The ability to travel for work made this experience incredibly rewarding.

Svantaggi

Slow mobility: Trying to get promoted felt like a moving goalpost—the expectations changed every six months and made it nearly impossible to get to the next step. Even then, the business was stingy about who gets promoted, which was incredibly discouraging after years of trying to prove myself.
