Nepotism, Toxicity, Politics. Most of the reviews here are by directors. Run.
Pros
Management teams are so disorganized there is an illusion of freedom. If you act like you know what you are talking about, they will promote you to a director without actually having any experience. If you are a developer here you might have it pretty good. If you are on the business side, find another company. There are some actual smart people here, but it is diluted by people who do nothing. Desk morale events. Weekly "celebrations" to keep people from quitting. Popcorn machine and free soda. Bank rolled by a private company.
Cons
The company doesn't value Support. As soon as they board customers they don't care about them. No effort into making the software stable. QA is terrible(there is none). Upgrades actually make the software worse. Customers should prepare to be down atleast 2 times a week. CEO brags about firing people. Business side thinks its a good idea to hire a bunch of people laid off from another company in MKE, and they keep doing it, creating an inner circle of people that all cover for eachother's poor business practice. Almost all of the managers and directors are first timers and have no idea what to do most of the time. Executives have zero clue what is going on with their company. They moved offices and Developers are still sitting on top of eachother. Management will lie to you to get you into the door. Company claims to listen to suggestions but will keep doing things exactly the same. All that matters is the bottom line of making money and finding ways to bill customers more. There is no job titles or descriptions, "we wear multiple hats here" means you do everything and are held responsible for everything. Company politics and general "not my job", "wrong department" or "I am too busy" attitude will stop any advances in reliability. Financial structure that puts benefits like beer and popcorn or daily outings (for just one team) before raises and quality of life. 50+ hour work weeks. You will be on call all the time and then blamed for not being able to magically fix the terrible software.
