Great place to learn & grow

Recommend

Pros

- Its fully remote so you are no longer stuck in big cities away from family - Endless opportunities to learn through various channels; pairing is my fav

Cons

- Uncommon tech stack (Rails & Ruby) slows down new devs a bit as there is a big learning curve; ps ruby is magical on its own

Pros

- Digital by Design. Love working remotely and people respect your time outside of work. More time to do things like exercise and having family time. - Genuinely good people and managers. Fellow team members are approachable and always happy to answer your questions. Managers are also competent and don't shy away from tough questions ranging from team morale to compensation (though they might not know it themselves sometimes and will get back at a later time) - Compensation is above average as compared to other tech companies and is still under review from various benchmarks. - Healthcare insurance is the best I've had. Covers my whole family. - Runs like a start up. Good that we can run fast without much bureaucracy. - No blame culture. Not afraid to break things as we will solve the problem as a team and learn together which is great!

Cons

- Keeping up documentation is hard. There are lots to read, decisions to be made and you can really spend the whole day just reading and still not done.
