Affected my confidence as a Developer

Software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good Salary and benefits, flexible hours, really good graduate training, got thought good software development processes. Good corporate values.

Cons

Politics, management who rewards and back slaps themselves, treated badly, this was my first job and my confidence as a developer after leaving this job was on the floor, more time spent going to and from meetings than doing development, little or no travel, favoritism, once key people get a bad opinion of you, you're put in a category of useless people

Financial Rep

Financial representative

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

It is a very young culture because the company primarily targets individuals fresh out of college for the position. Additionally you are able to gain insight into the financial industry.

Cons

Not a long term career path. The job itself is in a call center which limits the "career" to positions within a call center. Poor management of employees, and low pay in comparison to similar companies within the industry.

Non technical management

Principal software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good benefits The people you work with are really nice Lots of locations if you want to move around and travel

Cons

Management are non technical. The software delivery process is costly and very poorly run. There is no freedom in technology selection or career direction. The people who do the work are rarely rewarded. Promotions are given almost exclusively to people in management positions.
