      Pros

      The best work/life balance you will find. CEO (Melissa) is the absolute best!! Very supportive and always there to help but also allows you be independent and try new ideas out. So much support from the whole team, family environment, fun company events. Everyone works hard but enjoys themselves while doing it! Great place to learn about technology and grow.

      Cons

      I can't think of one thing I would change!!

        Love the team; great people to work with! Always working on new projects so there's room for personal development and growth. They offer full paid medical, WFH, PTO time etc.

        Cons

        It's a smaller company so it may take time to grow but you get opportunities to work with larger firms

            Pros

            Chameleon is a small boutique IT consulting company with a team that truly values one another. Everyone gets along with each other without any drama. We do fun things outside of work and we laugh and enjoy each others presences during work. The happy and friendly atmosphere makes for a pleasant work environment and keeps one coming in every morning with a smile their face. A place where you truly feel valued and recognized for doing a good job. When things get crazy we all chip in and help each other through till the storm clears. I have never felt so at home in job, and having flexibility is truly another of many golden nuggets for working @ Chameleon.

            Cons

            There are not enough companies like Chameleon out there!

              Pros

              Chameleon Technologies is one of the best places I have ever worked! The company truly looks out for the employees'/clients'/job seekers' best interests. The owner is amazing and makes everyone feel valued and appreciated. Chameleon Technologies has one of the best company cultures I have seen. Work/Life balance is encouraged, employees are appreciated, birthdays are remembered, and accomplishments are acknowledged. Co-workers are fun, friendly and supportive. Everyone works hard, but takes time out to have fun, too. I consider myself extremely lucky to work for such a fun and dynamic company. If you get a chance to join this amazing company, Do It!

              Cons

              None that I can think of.

                Pros

                They are very hands on, they will meet you numerous times for lunch. They want to make sure you're comfortable with your contract. They will advocate for you if something needs attention at work.

                Cons

                They don't give raises (most recruiters will after six months, but they won't unless it comes from the employer they contract you to). They make you sign a two-year non-compete (this is possibly illegal in Washingon, it is in California). The non-compete is pretty wide in its scope too, so be careful. They don't pay top dollar, they mid-range. No medical benefit or sick days.

                  Business Outlook

                  Pros

                  • Great work environment and amenities (beautiful office, plethora of snacks provided, team lunches, specialty coffee runs, milestone acknowledgments, summer yacht event, quarterly massages and many other perks). • The Leadership Team is completely in touch with the business and has a collaborative approach to growing the company. • Chameleon’s team is always accessible and professional. They truly care about their employees and consultants.

                  Cons

                  More remote working options would be nice. They do offer this flexibility but I know it can be challenging in a recruiting environment due to the necessity for constant collaboration and communication.

                    They do their part of the job wonderfully that allows me to put all my energy in delivering great value to customers. At Chameleon everybody is available, professional, kind and helpful. They really care that you have a great working environment. Melissa (CEO) is always available and a source of energy. I know I can call her at my lowest hours and she will be available and provide great advice and optimism. I'm delighted to recommend Melissa and Chameleon.

                    Cons

                    I cannot figure out any one.

                      Pros

                      They were good to me and quickly addressed any issues that arose. When a piece of equipment that they issued showed signs it was about to die, they replaced it.

                      Cons

                      The company is so small that they have only minimal health insurance support (an extra $100 per paycheck, before taxes) and no 401(k).

                      Thank you for your review, we greatly appreciate your feedback. We’d like to inform you that Chameleon Technologies now offers a robust health insurance plan for all of their employees.

                        This is a company that cares. They put my interest ahead of theirs. Throughout the entire interview process, they kept me informed and updated. Great attention to detail. They took the time to understand what was important to me. Chameleon was able to match my skills with a project where I could excel.

                        Cons

                        I'm finding it difficult to come up with any negatives.

                      Alex L.

                      Applied for a job a few weeks back, got a call from HR yesterday morning about an interview next week. She mentioned she'd shoot me an email with all the interview details, but so far, my inbox is empty. Assuming I'll hear from her early next week, is it normal for them to expect me to show up for an in-person interview on short notice, like couple days?
