Pros

1. Great learning experience. Most of the tech stack is built from the ground up in javascript (Both front end and back end with the exception of some third party helper modules). If you are willing to dig into the framework, you will gain a tremendous understanding in every single aspect of software architecture. 2. Brilliant colleagues. It is not everyday you get to work with geniuses and talk to them about software development everyday. These are some of the brightest engineers walking on earth. They are always thinking of things in an extremely generic and reusable way. Occasionally you feel what they recommend in code review is too much of an over kill, but in the long run things do pay off. 3. Limitless opportunities and career growth. I have known people promoted from qa, dev, pm to managers and directors. As long as you are good at what you are doing, you will be recognized and awarded. 4. Long winter breaks! 5. Convenient location, fruit / snacks.

Cons

Things can get pretty stressful at times. Especially near project delivery dates. Sometimes people work on weekends to get things done. (On the bright side, you get extended winter break if you worked overtime.)

Pros

The only pro was my manager was relatively nice to me and supported me, as well as my co-workers.

Cons

Executive team cares more about themselves than about anything. Never willing to take the blame on mistakes they made. The founder is an egotistical multi-millionaire that made the company in hopes to make himself look good but really should have left the company in the hands of the employees. His constant need to shout and yell at everyone makes the environment so toxic and everyone is afraid to make even the smallest of mistakes in fear of him. This company will fire 5 people at a time and then divide their responsibilities amongst those that are left and get upset that the job is not being done the same, while also not increasing pay.

Pros

I was there as a student intern for a few months on the clinical team. Overall the company feels very collaborative, and everyone was very supportive. They have weekly fitbit fitness challenges which was fun to participate in.

Cons

It's a mid-size company, so there's limited upward mobility.
