Pros

* Leadership is open about company performance and direction, including sharing financial information * Friendly and collaborative team environment * Good benefits and compensation package, including stock options * Positive atmosphere across teams * Good diversity in terms of cultures, origins, and backgrounds. GREAT COMPANY for almost any position. For Engineering roles, might be good if you care about 9-to-5 and have no personal ambition.

Cons

* Decision-making can feel top-down at times, with limited input from engineering teams * Some technical decisions are not always clearly supported by data or documented trade-offs * Parts of the technology stack feel outdated * Engineering practices and standards can vary between teams, are not enforced and very loose. * Quality expectations are not always consistent * Limited opportunities to explore new approaches or improvements. Very little room for innovation. GREAT COMPANY for almost any position. For Engineering roles, might be good if you care about 9-to-5 and have no personal ambition.

Pros

When I first started at Roofr I thought it was too good to be true... There's no way a company actually treats their people this well. But after being here for almost a year, I can confidently say they really do mean what they say. Yes we are all working hard. yes we are all busy. Yes there are days when it's exhausting (because that's work). But there is also a deep understanding of work/life balance. There are so many times I've been told to log out so that I can focus on my personal life or just take a much needed rest. I honestly love it here. From a company perspective- I'm always amazed at how quickly they are advancing and changing their product, all for the better. The product continues to get better and better every day. It is easy to sell and rally behind because I can confidently say it works and will positively impact businesses.

Cons

None that I can think of. Seriously.
