Vantaggi

Working from home is about the only good benefit with this company, but as you'll see, coming to work here is a bad decision. At least there's talk that the company is being run with just enough that it will sell off.

Svantaggi

You are expected to work around the clock. I don't know what team one of these reviewers is talking about but I can tell you that they count down to the last minute before people are excused. Even experienced engineers must pay attention to report when they need to go use the restroom and when they return. The same rules don't apply to managers or their favorites. You will work overtime, you will be on call, without pay or compensation. Benefits are poor. Pay is low. The company runs extremely lean, they are cheap but they have no problem scrambling around getting 15 engineers and managers to work on a problem that was caused by using the cheapest solution possible or a lack of appropriate tools. There is also a core of longtime employees that are in way too deep and over their heads in important roles. There are many giant egos that affect the company and its customers in a bad way. The theme for the latest company call was work harder. If you are an engineer of any type and are considering working here, you would have to be desperate to do so and I feel for you. Also, they skipped bonuses this year as punishment for customer attrition. Everyone acts like they are on the verge of being fired and they actually foment that culture.

Vantaggi

Working Remote was great. There was no commute.

Svantaggi

Working Remote did have it's draw backs, in that the work was so fun that it was hard to know when to stop working. It was too easy to "go back to work".

Vantaggi

The best thing about Zerolag is that 90% of employees work from home. Besides staff working in data centers all other employees work at home. Schedules are flexible but you are expected to be available outside regular working hours. The company has a very entreprenurial culture and coming up with innovative solutions is encouraged.

Svantaggi

All-virtual environment is challenging for good teamwork. Lots of people in positions that are way higher then they have ever worked before and because of that are often stressed out, indecisive or make bad decisions. Company is self funded and has no outside investors so things are very lean. Pay and benefits are below average for a tech company and turnover is high. There was a big shake up last year with a well liked top executive leaving and loss of key sales people. A new executive was brought in but recently quit within the first 12 months and some of the team he brought in is leaving to. Management vision is to drive hard for growth and profits but some focus on customer satisfaction has been lost resulting in more outages than years before.
