Pros

Pretty transparent; the people there are very nice; still small so not a lot of layers of management; not overly demanding. Also, there is room where you can spread your wings take on large projects if you are motivated. Nice office location.

Cons

The technology is not very interesting (aging RoR monolith) and therefore don’t think they will be the next HubSpot. I have concerns about their scalability both from a technical perspective and an engineering organization. In addition, I think the company suffers from a lot of churn so the code suffers from lack of ownership and lots of half finished hacks. Finally, the company is dominated by B players.

Pros

I enjoyed my time at SessionM and learned a significant amount. I stayed through the Mastercard acquisition, and truly appreciate my time there.

Cons

No cons - it was a fast paced environment, which isn't for everyone.
