"I've worked for some time. I feel we press forward with new technologies too quickly without taking a step back to make sure that previous elements are still working. It is not uncommon for a release to hinder key functionality. With that being said we do stay on the forefront of development and the new features included in each release truly do become game changers."

"Be wary of this company. It's a great company to start your career in but management is out for themselves. They look for someone to blame instead of solutions. They play favorites with the employees. If you are not a favorite, your life here will be short lived."
