Pros

- Fantastic manager - Fantastic team to work on - Engaging problems to work on - The work is challenging but very rewarding to see the end result - PTO of 3 weeks/year is easily approved - Great health/dental/medical benefits (100% covered if an individual, 95%-99% for families) Before I left, there was a substantial push to get the tech stack to be more modern, so that was a huge plus.

Cons

- Tech stack can be dated at times, depending on the team (iOS, Android, Web) - Some tech problems are systemic from the older tech stack, making simple additions that'd normally take a day become massive week-long tasks - Occasional on-call rotation, works out to be around once every 6-8 weeks - Compensation is on the lower-end compared to tech companies but in-line & above compared to non-tech companies

Pros

office is nice, good benefits

Cons

this company is a sinking ship. its values have changed from a good product and happy employees to we will do anything at all to stay relevant. sports betting is a depleting business. FanDuel let go over 500 people in one day and proceeded to have a massive ad event and paid for peoples subway rides with knicks alum and merch and everything...on the same. exact. day. They do not care about you and they will get rid of anyone. I would not recommend anyone work here unless maybe you just graduated and are looking for experience. We just got rid of our CEO and our CPO is leaving as well as several other high level employees because there is no saving this ship. jump off now is my advice.
