Pros

Company seems quite good aside from the cons

Cons

Working in data sucks because that means you work under Vlasios. You won't enjoy working under him unless you're a fan of very shouty, aggressive phone calls. Or a fan of ridiculously short timelines, and constantly moving goalposts. Or a fan of a manager who thinks he has the data science knowledge to micro manage a DS team but (shock) doesn't! Everyone who joins is looking to leave within 6 months. If he leaves, might be a fun place to with 👍

Pros

Great teammates with high standards and low egos. Compensation isn’t competitive, so top performers often move on. The medical insurance, though, is excellent.

Cons

Management: Severely disconnected. A strict “3 days in office” rule is tracked via weekly attendance reports, yet the Head of North America works fully remote after moving away from Houston. Compensation: Senior-level pay is well below the Houston market. Repeated promises to make salaries competitive have been half-measures (think bottom 10% range). Hours: Expect meetings to be scheduled irrespective of your actual working hours.
