Vantaggi

The product is truly inspirational - we're building a new kind of cloud storage system - one that pools unused storage from our users as opposed to building out massive, expensive, high carbon footprint datacenters. I love helping build a great product that is also making the world a better place. Employees are treated like adults and have flexible vacation and great benefits. It's a fun place to work - we have catered lunches and have cool digs in Pioneer Square, with a ping-pong table and arcade basketball. We have happy hour every Friday and the people are cool and laid back.

Svantaggi

The building is old - it has character but the air conditioning can be finicky and loud, and the space sometimes feels a little dark (especially during the winter months when it's rainy/cloudy outside).

Vantaggi

Great vision and product to take on a hard problem. We have market validation too. Lots of hard problems to solve to keep you engaged and excited. Very transparent upper management.

Svantaggi

Its a crowded space and like any other startup there is risk if the product will stick and adopted by people.

Vantaggi

At Symform, we work with lots of technologies (frameworks/languages/etc.), we aren't married to just one way of doing things. I got a lot of great experience with new things after leaving the silo world of Microsoft. Employees are empowered to decide how best to build new features. Deployment to the production environment happens fairly often, so you get quick impact of the code you write. Also, the Symform product idea itself is pretty cool. A Peer-to-Peer storage network, and all the "interesting" engineering challenges that come along with implementing and debugging a distributed system, is a lot of fun that keeps me engrossed in my work. Symform also has great people. Very intelligent colleagues that are a pleasure to be around, learn from, and collaborate with. And who can forget (delicious) catered lunch every day? Mmmmm.

Svantaggi

A start up atmosphere isn't for everyone. It can be a bit hectic sometimes and there is a lot of unknowns to deal with while building something no one else has done before. People that like working in that environment can thrive here though.
