Vantaggi

As with any company, experiences can vary from team to team. My experience here is limited to engineering. That said, this is my favorite and most rewarding position in over a decade of being a software engineer. - Incredible people - Remote-first company - Unlimited PTO without guilt – time off is strongly encouraged by managers - Some support for additional training and resource materials - Company is continually evolving - Overall company diversity is great compared to all of my past jobs - Support for personal career growth (with a caveat, below)

Svantaggi

- Sometimes the pivots can feel impulsive and unnecessarily disruptive - Communication sometimes falls apart at various levels from the top down - Leadership is still primarily male, though they are aware of this - Sometimes you need to stay on top of management about your personal career goals before action is taken (shift to new team, etc); they DO want to help, but sometimes it falls by the wayside

Vantaggi

Lots of "control" in mentorship, schedule flexibility, get paid to enhance your craft, and typical benefits of being an independent contractor

Svantaggi

Unsteady flow of work (would be wise to not rely on this for primary income), pay is sub par for industry, pay schedule is roughly a month after service(rediculous lead time on billing), the company clearly cuts corners every year to save money and this directly impacts the contractors, unclear communication / expectations of the junior engineers that you train (we get lots of questions that must be deffered to Thinkful and many rules are not clear. You will also find students who seek help beyond the mentorsession as a last resort and must decide to leave them hanging or go above and beyond without additional pay)
