      Exciting work, not much time for anything else - Software Engineer Numina Employee Review

      Pros

      Fascinating work, lots of exciting things to dig into. Great benefits, but at what cost?

      Cons

      Really unhealthy work culture and politics are rampant throughout engineering and non engineering teams. A major issue was how much knowledge was siloed into distinct aspects of the stack. This often made it difficult to service legacy code. Often hard won critical engineering successes would go unnoticed. Management would often ask you to work on critical projects not fully scoped in the engineering road map, causing whiplash and constant context switching. Office politics dampened any camaraderie that might have flourished between peers.

      Pros

      * Team is truly wonderful and even in a remote setting never felt a disconnect between anyone. * The mission is great. I got to see my work used by urban planners to defend or propose changes to street layout. * Plenty to do, lots of feature requests, lots of room for pure infrastructure development. * Lots of room to bring ideas to the table. Lots of room to plan and deliver a whole new feature or service. * Everyone on the team has a pretty high standard for themselves to deliever good work. * Even as a startup, work-life balance was incredible. Actively encouraged to take PTO and care for yourself.

      Cons

      * Sometimes difficult to analyze spaces for customers. This can be solved by hiring more analysists from urban planning backgrounds. * Like any startup there comes some existing tech debt. However, for the tech debt that exists, there is lots of documentation as to design decisions, planning, and usage of pre-existing tools.
