Vantaggi
Pay was excellent. Team members were smart and had divergent perspective, so conversations were good. The TKO (annual cheerleading event) was inspirational and Ryan Andorfer was a sweet-talking technical visionary on the regular. The product has great potential and sells well. They are likely to be in business a long time.
Svantaggi
We made incomplete code as the baseline. There was always time to patch incomplete code for the current need, but never enough time to identify RCA and perform lasting corrective action. Documentation was not a priority, so every time an issue occurred, full code review was required. Communications from middle-management to the workers was vague, so targets were difficult to hit. The most successful engineers were comfortable creating the same project 5-6 different ways in the hopes to appease. Development code was constantly pushed to production with minimal review. "LGTM" Approve. It's all about checking boxes, content doesn't matter.
