      Pros

      - Lots of ownership opportunities since the team (in FinTech) was only 3-4 months old when I joined (late 2018) - Got to design and implement major features/projects E2E - Good WLB, but this was because of the department/team being FinTech and only facing internal customers

      Cons

      - Lack of strong mentorship in the team/department - was basically figuring things out myself after 6+ months and setting standards

      Pros

      Medical/ dental/ vision insurance, mental assistance, 401k, lawyer assistance, Career choice, VTO, PTO, vacation time

      Cons

      Most AMs have avoritism among employees. We get mandatory extra time (now is calling "voluntary" but you have to go when it is schedule) at the end of the year, what makes difficult for some of us when we have kids and they're really rigid about it.

      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.
