Great place to work - Manager Foundry9 Employee Review

Access to management, deep technological knowledge to bring interesting work to life, proactive workers are highly valued and nice sense of team mostly in one place so its easy to communicate. Has an entrepreneurial speed to things.

So fast growing your career can be overlooked. If you're looking to be mentored this is not necessarily the place for you. Limited clients mostly in the financial sector so culture is also very conservative.

- Great financial services experience - PM's are also client services / account managers, so it's a good opportunity to get client management and relationship management experience - On-site technical staff are mostly helpful and collaborative - Excellent location in the Flatiron district of Manhattan - Nice renovated offices with an open plan and enough conference room space. - Dedicated QA team - Highly experienced PM, technical, and UX leadership - Perks such as drinks and snacks

- Process is broken. It often is an obstacle rather than helpful. Too much time is spent on managing inadequate software, and not enough time solving major problems. - Communication is problematic. Leadership micro-manages. There is a culture of secrecy and punishment so employees are scared to communicate problems when they arise as a result. Some key employees don't even read e-mail due to the high volume created by the communication system in place. - PM's are used as scapegoats, but are relatively powerless to enact change. - Sweatshop environment caused by poor staff planning, broken process, and lack of a problem-solving management approach - all of these issues converge and result in many staff needing to work longer hours than necessary to deliver projects by the client's deadline - Lack of willingness to make decisions based on profitability - Too heavily reliant on one client - High turnover
