Pros
I started WideOrbit last week, so far my experience has been great. The team has been extremely helpful and easy to ask for assistance! Lots of video's to watch and material to read, but the more I get into the nitty gritty I'm confident it will all make more sense and I'm looking forward to my new venture. My experience was exceptional from the very 1st contact I had with the 1st recruiter, even as they made changes in their department there was never a disconnect with me, everyone (I personally dealt with 3 different TA partners) kept me in the loop with the status of my application/interview process.
Cons
No cons, yet, but I think I'd like to refer to them as 'areas for improvement' though. Just like us humans, we all have them no one is perfect 110% of the time.

WideOrbit employees are smart, friendly people who aim to make new team members feel welcome from day one.
