Pros

• worked with latest technologies such as React, Ruby on Rails, ECS, Fargate • learned how to refine the customer problem, collect requirements, create user stories, and design the architecture and workflow • learned how PM's operate in a tech company

Cons

• I was the only engineer on a team of PM's • did not start coding until later on • wasn't assigned to dev team, so didn't get feedback/guidance often • another team influenced architecture change, which caused 3 weeks of delay

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
