Pros

- Good location for an office. - Free Unlimited Orca Pass - Beer in fridge - Coffee Machines

Cons

- Incompetent management - Favoritism - Active resistance to any change and anything new. - Managers regularly tell employees [sic] you should be working 55-60 hours a week. - Some of the worst Software practices and approaches out there. - In Professional Services Outbound team, they promoted a guy who is the most incompetent person in the team just because he's friends with the promoting manager. - Most of the people prefer excel sheets over Jira to manage daily tasks - Management expects people to send daily status emails! Talk about punching time cards. - The rudest Office Admin I've seen.

Pros

The company offers excellent training and a thorough onboarding process, helping new hires feel well-prepared and confident. The small, close-knit teams foster a collaborative and supportive work environment where you never feel lost in the crowd. Employees take pride in the innovative technology and software being developed, which is recognized as impactful within the industry. (Note: The company was acquired by Microsoft to bring potential for future growth.)

Cons

While the company excels in many areas, there’s limited upward mobility, especially in certain career paths, which can be frustrating for those seeking advancement. Additionally, feedback from employees often feels like it’s not taken seriously, which can lead to disengagement when trying to influence change or improve processes.
