Pros

Work from home 100% Cool team mates

Cons

Stay away from this company! Took them 3 months and 4 rounds of interviews to get hired. From day 1, onboarding was you figuring out everything on your own. Management was non existent and not helpful due to so called changes happening behind the scenes when I came onboard. My team mates were great though. Yet after 3 weeks of figuring things out, I was randomly let go and I'm told the entire engineering team I was on was going to be phased out as well. They gave me severance thankfully, which I had to follow up with them on because it was late. They said if I wanted to move to another job in the company, they'd give me preference, but of course, every one of my applications have been rejected. No one will answer emails either, so yea, stay away!!

Pros

Great team members and supportive, responsive, genuine team leads.

Cons

Low pay, especially considering stress and workload. No raises in 4 years. Constant write-ups for missing unattainable goals. Changed teams and managers involuntarily about 4 times during my career. Was hired as a lead, but they "reorganized" within a month, and I lost my title and privileges. As soon as I was getting the hang of the work, boom, they switch me to a new team with different work forcing me to relearn, and they wonder why I couldn't meet the goal. Terrible micromanagement, as in "what did you work on", "what are you doing" "why are you doing that" every single day. Only way to meet the goal number is to work 1-2 hours over your shift time off the clock. Health insurance is expensive and doesn't cover anything. Dental insurance won't even fully cover 2 cleanings in a year. Ever seen the show Severance? My girlfriend and I actually talked about how eerily similar the work experience is for this company.
