Pros

Good company to learn technology for new graduates in midwest, but for professionals will yearn for more. Settling down in midwest, then its a good place to work, for a decent salary in the suburbs for a laid back technology work. Management doesn't mistreat engineering teams, fun activities yearly and lots of vacation time the longer you stay. If you are not after money, but for a decent settled life in Chicago, this is a place to be for technology professionals.

Cons

Not the best place for professionals to stay on the long run. Difficult to climb the ladder, top 20% brings together all others work to complete the solution, your career growth is your hands, not management (against what HR claims). Pay raises/bonuses can be small on a average, compared to the market.

Pros

Excellent work-life balance: The company respects personal time and maintains a healthy, sustainable work environment. Strong and supportive leadership: Management is genuinely invested in employee success and actively encourages upskilling. Opportunities for technical diversification: I joined as a Salesforce CPQ Developer, and leadership supported me in training for MuleSoft alongside my existing role. I am now handling both platforms and built deep expertise in MuleSoft Integration by successfully completing 4 projects. Great career growth: Thanks to the leadership team's encouragement and the opportunities provided, there is a clear, proven path for expanding my technical stack and advancing my career.

Cons

I do not have any cons to report at this time. It has been a great place to work and grow my career.
