Pros

Most colleagues that are below senior level were good to work with. Salaries and benefits are decent, but they were not very competitive compared to software engineers working at other companies.

Cons

The politics and culture in this company were horrible. I have worked with many senior level workers and I could count on one hand the number of good workers that were a pleasure to work with. The rest of the senior workers were only looking out for themselves. They micromanaged and made you work long hours. Employees in this companies love meetings, but they could not effectively run meetings. Most of the meetings I've attended were a waste of time. The other meetings were considered effective because the attendees were not responsive to instant messaging or emails.

Amazing company, the BEST colleagues

Pros

Colleagues are the best, it's a great bunch that feels more like family than colleagues. Ambitious people can go all the way, and everyone gets paid quite well.

Cons

Part of management is great, really knows what's going on but some are not equally involved, resulting in inconsistent management leading to disconnection amongst teams. There is hardly any balance. Even when giving 100% commitment, more will be asked from you.

Great place to work

Pros

Align pays well, has mostly interesting work, and doesn't expect many extra hours. I also like their 17 vacations days from start to finish. Mostly, management was good but their business changes so fast that they have trouble adjusting - felt like a startup that outgrew itself. Money was never a problem for travelling or projects.

Cons

Managers had favorites, if you weren't one of them you could get left behind.
