Pros

If you want an employer who is hands off and does not come around they are great.

Cons

No pay raises in 8 years. Don't care about their employees only looking for more work. They show interest and then never even try to move you up, No opportunities even if they tell you there are.

Sorry that you have not received a raise in 8 years. The company has been around for 9 years, and we have grown from 2 people to 300+. If you have been around for truly 8 years, then either I am missing something, or you have been in a dark, gloomy place... sorry. Time to step out in the sun, share your accomplishments with the management and see what happens :)

Pros

work from home. being a family first company i never felt like calling out sick or requesting time off was going to end my career. in fact they always push using your PTO.

Cons

little interaction with others in the company. need more connection events and planed meetups.

Pros

I hope they can create some good things. I have seen none.

Cons

While the company presents itself as employee-focused, my experience did not reflect that in practice. Support for employees is minimal once you are placed on a contract. The primary emphasis appears to be on maximizing billable revenue, with far less attention paid to employee development, technical growth, or long-term career planning. Engineers often feel more like assets being sold to clients than professionals being invested in. Management involvement tends to surface mainly when there are contract concerns or billing-related issues, rather than when employees need guidance, advocacy, or support. When challenges arise on a project, employees are largely expected to handle them independently, even when issues stem from unclear requirements or poor client-side planning. There is also a noticeable gap between how roles are described internally versus how work is actually performed on contract. Expectations can shift after placement, and employees are left to adapt without meaningful backing from leadership. This creates a sense that individuals are being “disguised” to fit client needs, rather than being honestly positioned or protected. Career progression is unclear, and feedback is limited. Promotions and raises do not appear to be tied to technical contribution or workload, making it difficult to feel valued beyond your billing rate. Overall, the company may work for those seeking short-term contract placement, but engineers looking for genuine support, transparency, and long-term professional growth may find the environment disappointing.
