Pros
* An Engineering team that prioritizes writing high-quality maintainable code. Codebases grow over time & sometimes existing patterns are no longer feasible to continue following, so the team members are encouraged to bring these issues up so we can address them. * A solid Product team. Every Epic is well researched & well thought out. The context of the problem we're trying to solve is always given before starting feature work. The Product team is very forward-thinking so possible future features or asks get communicated as well. This is important because it allows Engineers to make the best possible decisions & minimizes having to redo things in future work * A solid customer base that is growing quickly 🚀. Which is a good sign of Product-Market Fit. 👀 * The work we do is very meaningful, the software/processes we're building is helping solve the labor shortage in agriculture in America because through the software we're building we make the H2A Visa process simpler & easier which as result allows employers to onboard a lot more farm workers.
Cons
At the time of writing, Seso is about 2 .5 years old. At this point It's pretty common in startups for them to have pivoted at least once or twice because they're just trying to figure it out. I list this as a con because when this happens it's an emotional rollercoaster & as a result you slowly start to lost motivation to continue working for the startup. This is NOT the case here at Seso. The founders here saw the problems in the industry & have executed beautifully on them. We know where we are & where we want to go. Working here is like compound interest, everyday just keeps getting better. Ok the above is actually a pro haha. Some typical cons that Seso is still prone to: * processes are still being defined (normal, & hey as an early employee you get to help build some of these) * we may throw you in the fire (overtime onboarding gets formalized) * we're fully remote so building interpersonal relationships is harder (this is actually a pro if you're an introvert haha)
