Pros

I gave it 4 stars, but it should really be more of a 4.5. Unfortunately, glassdoor does not allow that. The people are fantastic. It's a wonderful environment to work in, especially for neurodivergent folks. Everyone is treated like a real human, not just a tool to get the job done. The culture is fantastic and welcoming to everyone, and people genuinely care about about everyone else's well being, both physical and mental. Folks affected by natural disasters and such are afforded time off and financial assistance as well.

Cons

The salary is hard to get by on if you live in higher cost of living areas and don't have the means to move elsewhere, as it's not adjusted based on location. Due to rising costs of living, I've been financially forced to begin to explore other potential opportunities, despite not actually *wanting* to.

Pros

* Friendly co-workers and management. * Client work is usually interesting, and most clients are easy to work with. * Invested in employee psychological safety and has innovated tools to track and resolve issues affect psychological safety. Specifically, they present themselves as being genuinely interested in hiring neurodivergent people.

Cons

* Has been struggling financially and to retain clients for the past 2.5 years, leading to them having hemorrhaged a sizable portion of their staff in that period through many rounds of layoffs. * Seems more interested in hiring "expert partners" and outside skilled people from elsewhere in the industry as consultants than developing and training internal talent. * Some clients and client projects are duds, and unpleasant to work on, due to both the nature of the work, client expectations, and personalities of client contacts, and Engagement/Quality Managers on projects aren't always effective at sufficiently advocating for Ultranauts team members when issues come up. * Company/senior management is heavily interested in getting into federal contracts and working with the (current) federal government of the United States, despite all the current instability and hostility towards autism and neurodivergence associated with the current administration.
