Great - Senior Software Engineer URX Employee Review

Great place to work always

nothing here to add for this

URX is focused on fixing the age old problem of linking across apps. The team is really locked into the vision of using search to contextually do this. We get to work with some world class engineers from the world of search (and in general the team is stellar) and was given a large amount of autonomy from the get go. The CTO encourages learning and working on open source (I think 2 of our Leads are prominent contributors to Lucene and Spark). Lots of visibility into the goings on of other teams, leadership meeting notes are shared with the team and John (CEO) and Andrew (CTO) make themselves available to anyone that wants to spend time with them. We're starting to do a lot more team activities which has definitely brought the team closer. All in all, great experience so far!

The team is small so the workload can spike around deadlines. Management is pretty good about letting people take time off or work remotely after long stretches. The benefits are decent but there's definitely room for more options. The organization is super flat. It will be interesting to see how that changes as we grow.
