Vantaggi

Waystar is a growing company with lots of room to work on interesting and meaningful projects while growing your career. We are very focused on work-life balance and doing what we can to keep work within business hours as much as possible. The culture is the real standout here, with friendly and talented people to work with. Senior leadership values transparency and has taken criticism of policy without retaliation.

Svantaggi

Wish there was more flexibility with the work from home policy. Lot's of top talent I'd like to hire, who are ineligible to hire because they aren't local. (We're 100% remote with the Delta Variant now, however discussion is still happening to shape the future policy.)

Vantaggi

Strong in office culture, catered lunch weekly Meaningful work, interesting problems Many opportunities for growth Better gender diversity than other engineering orgs Great teamworking, many opportunities to make real impact. Opportunities for recognition Quarterly on-sites which could promote remote employee inclusion (if they actually showed up)

Svantaggi

Intense on-call rotations, every 2-5 weeks depending on team. No additional compensation for on-call work even if team is smaller and rotations are more frequent. Legacy tech stack, little focus on tech debt as clients are king. Overworked SRE team so devs own as much of infrastructure as they can. Re orgs almost every year, usually more confusing than helpful from an individual contributor level Alcohol heavy culture. Explicitly, not a great place to be if you have a strained relationship with drinking. Product dept had some star team members but a few PMs were unengaged, lacking knowledge, and difficult to interact with Pay was not competitive. Leadership has varying levels of engagement in / knowledge of the work and varying levels of respect for work-life balance. Very young leadership team. Junior to senior ratio > 2. Co-ops can get more attention and exposure than some new hires. Mission has shifted from a focus on patient satisfaction to a focus on profits for providers. Remote employees given food/lodging during onsites, but local employees not compensated. All new hires expected to be local which limits talent pool, espc for senior engineers.
