- Growing organization - Great work life balance - HIgh calibar talent - Great hardware. Standard issue is Mac (yes!) - They say their employees are their most valuable asset and they mostly truly believe it - Free snacks and beverages - Friendly and mostly approachable upper management

Cons

- Horrible 401k matching and vesting - No paid holidays - Hourly pay only - No bus pass - No parking pass - No bonuses - Raises are paltry - Open office environment - Accounting/finance team is pushy and outright unfriendly regarding time sheets, expenses or any requests, really

Pros

Many great opportunities to learn and use new tools and technologies. Many great opportunities to work with top-notch developers. There are no better developers to go to battles with. They are dedicated and want to do the jobs right. Many opportunities to work with different clients. If you want to keep your skill set up to date I couldn't think of another way to do so than through consulting/contracting. Dev9 is a decent place to help you achieve this goal. Good pay and decent benefits. The new PTO system is a much needed and appreciated addition to the benefits package. Good training opportunities. Good source of knowledge wealth internally. Top-notch technical leadership.

Cons

Not completely honest with what Dev9 can provide. I can certainly see the point of view of the previous employee’s negative feedback in another post. I actually saw part of it and chalk that up as mis-aligned expectations. Upper management not showing much interest at the trench level. I have a lot of respect for the management in technology and sales. But the rest, they are almost invisible other than at the all-hands. Show us at the trenches what you do. Make us feel confident of your leadership. Right now I don’t feel very confident.

Pros

Management will always be friendly to your face, they like you when the client is happy, they try to always keep you working,

Cons

I was let go after coming back from speaking at SpringOne without being given a reason. I was originally hired to do API development but when I got in, they did a bait and switch on me and sent me elsewhere to work on payment systems. I was salaried and they said they were moving everyone OFF salary two weeks into the job. I asked around and it turned out I was the only one asked to sign paperwork to move off salary. I helped to bring in a contract with Tmobile worth at least $300K and acted as the initial point of contact and they let me go the very day I was going to meet with them. I was also hired to do one job at one company and they bait and switched me to another company entirely. When they let me go, everyone instantly stopped talking to me. It was bizarre and cult like. Since then, had people say to me they would never work there again and never suggest anyone to them.
