Vantaggi
Management has done a great job of picking a specific strategy, communicating it well, and sticking with it. We have platform that could be sold to lots of different types of businesses, but we have focused on a specific industry (retail) and a specific market segment. This is not always easy for a start up and shows the maturity of the management team and the CEO in particular. Secondly, as an engineer it's rare to find a company with as many interesting technical challenges as we have. From big data analytics to the mobile platform and in between everyone has interesting problems to solve and are using modern cloud hosted tools and tech to solve them. I've learned how to use Hadoop, Hive, Pig, Node.js, and more since I've been here.
Svantaggi
Parking in downtown Bellevue is expensive. The office is next to the transit center so bus it if you can. The company does have a parking subsidy that helps. There are a lot of Seahawks fans here (just going to put that in this section w/o further comment).
