Pros

I worked at Simplus as a developer since the very beginning. I know the management well and really enjoyed my time there. I only left to begin my own venture. Simplus is a real startup. Things move fast and change a lot. I saw the company go from 5 people to over 50 in two years. There is huge opportunity to grow if you are the intrapreneur type. Things are a little harder if you can't adapt to change. Simplus is always trying new things. If you would like to innovate you'll get the opportunity here. Also, sometimes experiments fail and I've seen departments close down. Those who are flexible and willing to learn find other places in the company and those who won't get left behind. I myself loved this environment because I constantly had opportunities to learn new things. I heard a lot of employees complain about job security in the last few months but I never ever felt that my job was at risk. The hat I was wearing might be decommissioned but there are plenty of hats to wear at Simplus and they are willing to give you time to learn. As for the day to day, there is nice furniture. People stay out of their offices and remain accessible. Unlimited vacation. Right near tracks. Fun culture. The founders are fun to work with and accessible. I worked directly with them a lot at the beginning and it was my favorite job to date. The company is much larger now so there is less facetime but I know from my direct experience that the business is in good hands. My favorite part about Simplus is that it is an idea first company. Ideas hold more merit than titles. You want to run a department? Invent one. You can't do that at Adobe.

Cons

Everything I said in the pros, ask yourself if you are the intrapreneur type before applying.

Pros

Its a really fun team to work with and cool environment. I like how open the management is and willing to listen to our ideas. I learned a lot while working here.

Cons

There are some real growth pains that they are going through. There are a lot of things that are not yet formalized and this can be frustrating as a developer, although it has gotten a lot better recently (especially with their scope process).

A lot of hype

Pros

Great leadership in motivating. Like Steve Jobs, management can be mesmerizing with a reality distortion field. If you like fluff this is the place!

Cons

Disorganized and under paid is a very common theme if you are not a manager role. Company has too many leaders and under pay the developers.
