Pros

I joined Tacit Knowledge nearly two years ago. None of my previous employers can compare in any way to this digital consultancy. Why? - Because it's a company that cares about the employees as much as it does about the clients; - Because it's a company, where meeting experienced, talented, intelligent and - more importantly - friendly people is a standard; - Because it's a place, where you have an impact on how things get done. Your age, role or origin does not really matter as long as you have ideas that work. - Because it's a place, where software quality, agile soul and great atmosphere is not just a slogan, but a reality that you live every single day; - And finally, because it's a company, where you feel comfortable, supported and happy.

Cons

Sometimes the work is difficult and the tasks are complex, but whats more satisfying than delivering great solutions to challenging tasks that no one else is willing to touch.

Pros

Once had a highly regarded reputation in the eComm/CMS space. I worked with some of the most talented engineers and delivery professionals in my career, many of which I've stayed close friends with.

Cons

Once the Newgistics merger went into full force, the culture went south. HQ in Austin was absolutely clueless on how to maintain good culture with highly skilled knowledge workers in San Francisco. Benefits were cut, upward mobility was virtually nonexistent, and there was a mass exodus of top notch leadership. The managers that remained or were brought in were absurdly incompetent and sometimes unethical. It caused a steady outflow of top talent to where the great culture that once thrived became virtually unrecognizable. The sales pipeline was once overflowing and then it dried up. HR was the worst I've ever seen in any company. When they cut our benefits, they had an entire year to communicate the change, yet they waited until just before benefits enrollment. They were also very poor at time keeping, many times making mistakes in payroll and vacation accrual.
