Pros

Free $20 once a month (if they remember) which you can redeem for gift cards.

Cons

-cliques. And if you find yourself in the wrong one… have another job lined up quick! -upper management take no accountability and are happy to be nice to your face and turn around to talk badly about you to everyone under the sun. Including other engineers.. yikes. -unlimited PTO sounds great until they deny every request you put in, or they approve it while making you feel guilty for taking a day or two off. -they will gaslight you, shame you, embarrass you, overwork you, and basically emotionally wreck you in every way possible. I am not angry while writing my submission. This is the reality of what I felt daily at coretelligent. I wouldn’t even recommend this company to someone desperate for employment with no other options.

Pros

Fully remote. That's quite literally the only perk.

Cons

The entire organization operates in a state of constant chaos. In my short time there, nearly the entire executive team was replaced. One executive even left after just a single day. Leadership changes seem to be the company’s go-to solution for every problem, yet there is no clear direction or consistent strategy. Turnover is incredibly high for a company of around 200 employees, with several people leaving each week. Cash flow issues are severe, vendors frequently go unpaid, and daily operations suffer as a result. Promised raises and bonuses are continually delayed, seemingly to outlast the ever-churning staff. Even the bonus structure was so poorly explained that it left most people confused. Hearing senior leaders admit that the company could fail if customer losses continue does little to inspire confidence or loyalty. Meanwhile, employees are pressured to complete questionnaires labeled “optional” that end with questions such as “If you were offered another job for the same pay, would you leave?” That kind of tone shows how disconnected leadership is from the reality of how staff truly feels. Who would honestly answer an “anonymous” question like that? Hard work is not valued or rewarded. Roles continue to be outsourced overseas to cut costs. The company even misleads employees about leadership being on “paternity leave” as a way to stall, only for people to later find out that person was laid off. If you are considering an offer here, think carefully. No matter how desperate the job market may seem, this company’s instability and poor management make it a short-term stop at best.
