Slow Sinking Ship - Engineer Code for America Employee Review

Working at Code for America was a truly rewarding experience. The organization is filled with passionate, intelligent, and mission-driven people who care deeply about making government services more accessible and equitable. Leadership genuinely believes in the mission, and there’s a strong focus on collaboration, inclusion, and innovation. I learned so much from the cross-functional teams and appreciated how everyone’s voice was valued. The work has a direct positive impact on real people’s lives, which is something you can’t say about every organization.

Honestly, the only downside was not being there longer! It’s the kind of environment where you wish you could continue growing and contributing for years to come.

Mission was incredible and so were people

Lack of transparency was rampant
