Pros

Great working environment, good stepping platform for building my skillsets, got to "test" the waters. Besides work life balance, being talented and nice coworkers, exposure to complex system and cutting edge technology. They also offered to help my self get certified in opps aligned with my work. I read some of the other reviews and I wanted to make it clear there is product development happening as well. So if you are on the product side, then you're on their technical product oriented work (not services), and early on it can be a fast-paced environment thats competitive; results-driven; analytical; manage-by-the-numbers culture; Smart and technical leadership. The people I worked with were great. My direct managers/leads were wonderful to work for. They always had my back and tried to advocate for us.

Cons

Everybody seemed rather cool, the atmosphere really open and generally enjoyable. They were fairly quick with setting up the interview, but their clients seemed to be very slow with the feedback process, I was given regular updates from Mapjects. It would have been nice to get some more concrete dates, when I inquired I was told they were still waiting on their clients feedback. I finally got the work, but rather long process.

Pros

1) More employee attention, smaller firm, specialized and focused in engineering. 2) The office is custom-built and some fun exclusive employee use only gaming events, like a starutp has, foosball, ping pong, etc. 3) On down time, they were very constructive, and especially when we first started, we did more team events on longer fully paid weekend event. Which was completly out of the ordinary, and fun. They were attempting/trying to brew a family and freinds atmosphere-which I appreciate. The mini-van was not big enough, so we had to drive our cars, they forgot to comp me on the fuel. But Mapjects paid for the rest of the trip, tickets and loding. 4) The office is dog, pet-friendly. 5) For the size of the organization, they sustain relatively innovative, nimble, and fast-paced and open with communication but, that is definitely changing as they institute new process. Interesting to see how the new management will maintain that balance. They're opened an office in VA. 6) With their focus areas, and products, growing it will be interesting to watch their managements roadmap. 7) You work with some of the brightest, most innovative and hard-working/diligent minds in the industry.

Cons

The change in the office location has some of us wondering whats happening to our careers. Also, Mapjects sustains relatively innovative, nimble, and fast-paced and open with communication. Its going to be interesting to see how they bring this to their services side.

Pros

Great peers, beautiful innovative technology, friendly atmosphere. Everyone is willing to help and very much enthusiastic about their work, being small I was encouraged to get involved in other tasks, to build relationships. There is a culture of support, encouragement and fun amongst the different teams - we're all constantly brainstorming, and exploring what-if scenarios so everyone gets to chips in. The company has some unique tools, called "drive technology", it took me sometime to understand what it was - I kid you not! When it was described to me, I wasn't sure what it looked like, later through a little use, it became apparent, Mapjects stands to change business productivity by ten fold. Everyday its been a garden of growth for me.

Cons

I like working at Mapjects, so not much really. I will add, I was responsible to materialize research through spec sheets, data sheets and facts to support my ideas, this was something I have never done, so once I did it, it was a lot of fun.
