Pros
Incredibly fast and respectful Hiring process. From application to job offer was 8 days with 3 interviews. Collaborative culture. The team has multiple touch points each day for members to share knowledge and discuss active tickets, allowing for quick resolution of issues. I never feel afraid to ask questions, and the time between these meetings gives me time to resolve many issues on my own. Friendly team. Everyone on the team has been pleasant to work with. There's a very personable atmosphere that makes it easy to relax, coordinate with the team, and get work done. Reasonable expectations. Management sets reasonable goals and expectations for work, and offers flexibility where needed based on circumstances. I.e. the goal for the week may be 10 ticket closures, but if you got 5 tickets that were all complex, you hit the goal. Great pay and benefits. The PTO is generous, and the pay exceeded my expectations. No complaints. They promote from within. I've seen multiple director level employees who started as developers within Star. It's always a good sign when a company promotes from within
Cons
No clear coding standards. This is being worked on, but the code can be a bit messy in places.
