Pros

- Fully remote - Modern tech stack - Angular, Serverless, AI - Good coworkers Overall recommended for a junior or mid level engineer who is keen on keeping their head down and learning a modern tech stack.

Cons

- Bossy manager who is a strong engineer but terrible people manager. No room for anyone else to be a senior engineer. Holds back developments of others. Plays politics as needed. - Product manager / scrum master who is overbearing. Insufficient independence for engineering team from product management. Tech debt tickets need to get approval from higher management. - CEO who has good intentions but is out of touch with engineering culture and is too dependent / stuck with this Tech Lead manager to run the show. Not recommended for any senior software engineers.

Pros

One of the things I enjoy about Visory is being treated like an adult. No micromanaging, no managers waiting to ding you for every misstep. They are open to ideas and allow me the freedom to do my job. And the flexibility to be creative within my job structure. They prize collaboration, and while sometimes it is frustrating because the collaboration seems to take forever, this also means your voice is heard. with this freedom comes expectations though. The expectation to perform is always there. I like it though. Nothing wrong with hard work, especially when your contributions are respected.

Cons

lean and mean company. there is a lot to do. always.
