Pros

- good and decent people - great pay and benefits (except for 401k match) - good work/life balance

Cons

Unfortunately, all of the cons outweigh the pros: - very poor product vision and management - can't make up their minds what they want to sell other than a database - no vision - management is all talk and no execution Avoid this company

Pros

I had an excellent experience interning at a mid-sized developer-focused software company. The team fostered a strong learning environment with approachable engineers, solid mentorship, and a healthy culture of code reviews and collaboration. I was given real ownership over a backend project that improved internal workflows and simulated customer-facing processes, which helped me strengthen my understanding of distributed systems and testing practices. The company’s remote culture was organized and supportive, with clear communication channels and helpful feedback loops. Overall, it was a rewarding internship that gave me both autonomy and guidance in equal measure.

Cons

Honestly hard to find any cons — the team dynamic made collaboration smooth and enjoyable.
