Pros
- You will Learn a lot - Solid Benefits and perks - Solid Snacks - Flexible hours
Cons
- You will Learn a lot, but have no guidance. No code review standards. If you are a experienced senior engineer this might be ideal, but your underlings will suffer while they grind out the details on the bottom half. - It's like a fraternity. From top down, there is a huge issue with nepotism. Unqualified family and friends will be hired and will consistently under perform. Being a consulting business that it is, when business hits a low and they need to cut resources they will cut solid performers and keep the family/friends. The last wave they cut two employees on maternity/paternity leave before the low value inner circle members. - Roller coaster budget - The office was expanded and remodeled to signal growth but we immediately went into defcon 1 and removed 25% of the employees. The business needs some sort of stability, but I don't believe we have that.
