Pros

The people here are great. The remote work is excellent too. I liked the health insurance here.

Cons

Paradigm used to be a great place to work until the new President started working here. Google "g-yatri leaving pepsico" and you can see what she did to her previous employer. She left it a shell of its former self and cultured a highly toxic environment. The first thing she did so far at Paradigm is invent a new role within the company, Senior Vice President, and then hired her friend in that position. Her current step is laying off as many people as possible in place of her friends. Next step will be to offshore developer work. This is all so Paradigm can be corporatized into its parent company, BFS. If you are thinking about working here, wait until she leaves. Do not work here while she is here because you will be miserable. Don't take my word for it, look her up! Otherwise, prior to her starting here, the people on my team are excellent to work with. I saw this as a company I can retire at, but with the new President here, that's no longer the case. The Vice Presidents used to be very friendly and personable, secure in their positions. Now they're cold and callous to those around them, working in fear of losing their jobs to be replaced with one of her friends. To those fellow co-workers, good luck, because you're going to be miserable.

Pros

A Really great, relaxed culture. Understands value of remote work. Work life balance is a core value as far as I can tell. Paradigm has one thing that very few companies have which is they do genuinely reward and recognize people who put effort forward and care with further opportunities and compensation.

Cons

The pay is middling for this type of job but the low level of stress + culture of rewarding effort can mitigate that. Raises are not amazing but if you shine you can get promoted to a better role and pay bracket.

Pros

Company culture as a whole. Many of the long time employees are recognized and valued greatly by management and HR.

Cons

A lot of changes quickly that will most likely come back and bite them. New leadership is so AI and technology focused that they are skipping crucial steps. Tons of restructuring and getting rid of quality people because they staffed them in roles that they seem "redundant" now.
