Pros

Advicent Solutions offers college graduates an excellent place to get started, and really learn the Software industry. A position in the IT or Development side of the business allows you to get acquainted with everything that goes into software development and maintenance. Code compilation, debug tools and techniques, best practices for code quality, promotion of code through environments, opportunity to learn multiple languages etc. Advicent develops on a variety of stacks and languages including RabbitMQ, MongoDB, MS SQL, IIS / .NET/ C++, C#, angular java etc, lending lot's of learning opportunity. Culture is pretty good overall. I've met a lot of great people here, and almost everyone is willing to help one another. Very friendly and open to ideas.

Cons

Management has a tendency to shift between products and visions with a high degree of rapidity. One might argue too hastily. Compensation is light for the industry. Open culture sometimes does not disparage bad ideas enough, and allows decisions to gain traction that should not have.

Pros

Advicent was great - all went downhill after they were acquired by Investcloud. Majority of the team left within a few months of the acquisition (taking the great company culture along with them). Had nothing but great things to say about Advicent... Investcloud is a different story entirely.

Cons

Lack of transparency, mainly surrounding the Covid-era layoffs. To be honest, this is fairly on-par with other Covid layoffs but was one of the only cons I could think of.

Pros

- Great people to work with. They're mostly very intelligent, fun, and willing to help you if have any issues. It may be just me but I have not seen any kind of politics being played that would reduce focus on the job. - Culture is fun and inviting. There are a lot of events and collaboration/sharing across teams and departments. - From all of my experiences, managers do everything in their power to provide employees with the necessary resources and means to do the best in their position. This is all you can really ask, you have to do the rest and work hard. - Work-life balance is extremely helpful. Per the norm, 40 hours are expected but you have flexibility in essentially choosing your hours other than core ones and being available for meetings.

Cons

- Pay is across the board lower than average. That being said, if you're an above average employee then that will not be the case. Pay is likely lower than average due to the young workforce which is primarily 1-4 years out of college. - Training: in most positions, there is not a fully developed or organized training program. This is actually a plus and minus. On one hand it teaches you to deal with ambiguous situations. But it does make some people feel uncomfortable. It does however allow the organization to find people that can thrive with minimal direction.
