Code Fellows Reviews

Pros

- Fantastic staff - Reasonable hours and pay

Cons

None that I've seen, it's a stepping stone position for those finished the bootcamp so the pay isn't super high but that is to be expected.

Pros

fun people, good benefits, great environment

Cons

Not sure of where to push the company in future years

Pros

great support from staff and students

Cons

None I can think of, really

Pros

I love working with such dedicated coworkers. Everyone here really believes in the mission of the company.

Cons

Now that we are fully remote, I don't get to hang out with coworkers in the same way I used to.

Pros

Code Fellows really stands behind their messaging. One of the required readings when I got hired was 'The Growth Mindset' and we spend time at every meeting talking about ways to embrace a growth mindset. Mistakes are embraced as a took for learning and feedback is encouraged at every level. I love working for this company. My core beliefs align so well with what they believe.

Cons

It can be emotionally draining to work with stressed out students all day every day. They need your support and empathy and that can take a toll.

Pros

Great benefits and unlimited PTO, they don't micromanage your time and give you many opportunities to affect change including adding to the curriculum.

Cons

I like it here so far. They really listen to feeback.

Pros

Great community. All the staff at Code Fellows each has their own unique experience and they are more than happy to share it. Ability to dive into brand new technologies is probably my favorite part about the company. They keep up to date with the newest trends, and allow you to dive into those trends to share it with the students. It keeps me, as a developer, up to date, while not missing out on industry work. Supportive management. I am always able to turn to my managers when there are issues and we always work on a solution. Code Fellows does not micromanage their employees. The ability to learn from and be exposed to adults from all backgrounds to teach them software development.

Cons

Teaching a class has it's stressors, and sometimes prepping can overflow into your personal hours. This is only when first starting to teach, after an iteration or two, you begin to have a better work/life balance.
