Vantaggi
I'm a member of the Data Services team. I started here pretty fresh out of college with an interest in web technologies but no real context to go off of. My degree in CS focused a lot more on straight code and theory as opposed to exposure to different technologies. It made this job a perfect fit since the focus is on building sound object oriented code that interfaces directly with a multitude of different websites. Due to how quality focused this team is, its been a good growth experience for me. I've been able to really fill in the gaps from my degree and learn about what makes code more maintainable and extendable vs simply being efficient and correct. Anyone looking to start their career should give this job a hard look. Even if its not a path you want to pursue long term, this job is good for refining your skills and building confidence in your abilities.
Svantaggi
We had a rocky transition from our startup phase to being more corporate. Its been a compromise all around.
