Pros

Working in the apprenticeship program at Smoothstack has been an enjoyable challenge. The challenge has been enjoyable because there are some great people at Smoothstack. My fellow apprentices in the cohort have been super helpful and encouraging. The HR team is willing to listen to struggles I've had on-boarding and provided opportunities to help work on those processes for later cohorts. The instructors have been very helpful in working through understanding how the Salesforce code works and implementing it in different use cases. Truly grateful to be working here and looking forward to finishing the apprenticeship program!

Cons

Communications can be a bit difficult. The instructors in the program seemed to not know the program's schedule. We also rushed through a lot of content that hopefully won't be regrettable later.

Pros

Hands-On Training: Smoothstack provides immersive, in-depth training that really prepares you for real-world projects. Supportive Environment: The team fosters collaboration and mentorship, making it easier to learn and grow. Career Growth Opportunities: After the initial training phase, the company helps place you on engaging projects, giving you a chance to rapidly build your portfolio. Strong Community: There is a sense of camaraderie and teamwork that helps keep you motivated and eager to learn.

Cons

Fast-Paced Learning Curve: The training can be intense, so it might feel overwhelming at first if you’re not used to a rigorous schedule. Location Flexibility: Depending on client locations, you may need to be open to relocating or traveling. This can be a challenge for those seeking more predictable schedules.

Pros

nothing absolutely nothing, do not work here.

Cons

I'd give this place zero stars if I could. Shady business practices, no real understanding of how to run a company or manage employees, they micromanage people, the number of vacation days provided is a joke, lots of turnover at the senior management level which should tell you something, no business strategy, I could go on and on.
