Pros

The wfh is the only positive I can think of...

Cons

Let's see, in your first two weeks you will be emerged in to a product training, after the two weeks you get to take a test, if you fail the test they make it sound like it is such a BIG DEAL (not really), it's just a self imposed training and a test. Once you pass the test you are plunged right in to the "exciting world" of Therapy Notes! As a software developer you are going to be compared against your peers and god forbid that you do not produce as much as they are, you get written up and put on a 30 day probation period. If after the 30 days you do not improve you are kicked out. They LOVE to embrace a by the book Kanban process, so that means daily stand ups, collab sessions - which eat in to your daily available pool of hours and then you get to "stay after class" and work extra hours to make up the time, so that you can produce as much as your piers. The salaries are nothing exciting, I would say on the lower end of the market, the benefits are also kind of eh...they only allow you to start contributing to the 401k after a YEAR of working there. The team building is a non existent term at TN, everyone works in silos and only care to deliver THEIR stories and then sign off for the day. I would say that while it's great that management thinks that people are disposable and there is always some one else they can bring in off the street if you don't work out, this creates a constant rotating door effect, people get burned out only thinking about producing more and the team morale really suffers. If all of this sounds exciting to you, then by all means submit your application.

It's a sweatshop, basically.

Pros

- Teammates are genuinely nice and pleasant to work with. - I get paid on time. - If you care about your mental health and your worth as an employee and a human being, do NOT work for this company. This company creates software to help people with mental health issues, but yet creates a toxic engineering culture that destroys employees' well-being.

Cons

- Marked lack of diversity in leadership positions. - Uncompetitive pay compared to other companies in the same area. This is the lowest I've ever been paid in my career. The only reason I'm still working here is because of the bad job market. - The codebase is old and is so confusing that you'll want to cry, especially when working with the front-end. That's because they don't use a modern web framework. All of their code is messed up vanilla JavaScript and TypeScript. - They downgraded their 401k investment options from last year even though they were recently VC-funded. - Performance metrics are ridiculous and are laughable at best. These metrics turn teammates against each other instead of fostering a collaborative environment. No one cares about code quality. They prioritize velocity so everyone is incentivized to write the worst code so that they can meet ticket quotas. Think of a sweatshop like AWS, but worse since there's really no good pay or benefits, and TherapyNotes is what you'll find. - They pretend to be progressive, but run their engineering department like a call center. I feel like I'm an expendable employee and I'm not at all valued. They're no different than a regressive corporate company stuck in the 1950s.

Pros

the pros I can think of is that I met some cool friends.

Cons

WORST PLACE TO WORK AT. No, this is not just an angry employee, I am trying to save someone from having the worst experience of their lives. First they will entice you with the "bean bag room" and the DC and Marvel portraits. Make you feel like you can leave your other job because you'll have job security and support. So you say yeah, what the hell. Training comes around and you're in the room with your new friends (the only good part). The trainers are great. but that's only because they can't have a decision in what's to come. You go through product training, where you take an enticing test- Oh also the software is terrible so that's why the product training is long- Then you start to feel like I can do this, its not that bad hey at least there's free snacks. Next they will put you in your teams and you'll feel great, like okay if people can do this then maybe I can-WRONG. Just when you are feeling comfortable, they will decide it's too much for you WITHOUT EVEN ASKING, and all that talk about feedback and how we strive for an open communication environment, will just bite you in the butt cause they won't have any open communication to you when they decide to cut you after making you feel like your doing great.
