Pros

- being able to help students grow and develop their technical skills - pay is higher than other competitors

Cons

- hours are brutal. Nobody has time for anything else. Codesmith becomes their entire lives - toxic positivity and constant cult-like mentality. If you don’t buy in, it’s a very tough environment to work in. People who overwork are celebrated and “shouted out” and those who try and create boundaries are admonished and not considered “team players”

Pros

Pay is great Remote roles are available Startup environment keeps things interesting and moving quickly - great opportunities to work on different projects across teams Love connecting with students and meeting up with them outside of work

Cons

Environment feels gossipy - lots of staff personalities feel fake and mean Diversity Committee felt performative and like I didn't accomplish anything Room for REAL growth feels limited - felt like titles were handed out to make people feel special Role felt like glorified customer service with excessive criticism Feels like department director doesn't have clear vision for growth and like there is little investment in entry level team. The positives were nice but could not outweigh the negatives. Only so long before I started looking for another job.
