Multi product tangled mess!

Pros

Good benefits with decent PTO offering.

Cons

They have multiple versions of their code base deployed at several customers making it a nightmare to manage and support projects. It’s a tangled mess that they are trying to get out of. They cannot scale with this kind of a messy multi-version setup!!

Huge layoffs and cutbacks

Pros

AI is cutting edge. Delivery front line is great. Over worked but great.

Cons

Extremely poor leadership. Limited experience at the C level fosters distrust. When the CEO stated he has “no life” outside work one becomes concerned on the expectation.

Pros

- Genuinely great culture, nice open people - Generous PTO for American standards - Great first job for learning different parts of the stack and speaking with customers directly, high autonomy

Cons

- Some upper level execs on technical side are not great. Often will make unjustifiable promises to clients that the delivery team (data science) has to work long hours to complete - Not a "data science" role really. Other reviews expanding on this point are 100% spot on - Product is not as advanced as you would expect. Hard to find time to do research or work on advanced topics as the client support and manual processes eat up all of your time. Not many great ways to grow as an engineer - Not using industry standard tooling. Too much reinvention of the wheel which long-standing technical employees favor
