Pluspunten

Some opportunity to work with modern technologies like Databricks and Kafka. The remote nature of the role provides decent flexibility.

Minpunten

Cultural Gridlock: There is a heavy emphasis on internal politics rather than actual engineering progress. Decision-making is often slow and influenced more by "who you know" than by technical merit. Lack of Innovation: Despite having a modern tech stack, the appetite for real innovation is low. Projects often get bogged down in administrative hurdles and risk-aversion. Management Gaps: There is a noticeable disconnect between upper management and the technical realities of the engineering teams.

Pluspunten

• Flexible Scheduling • Benefits Package • Economically Sustainable

Minpunten

• Unrealistic workload at the store level. • As a salaried employee, you pick up ALL the slack, and are often the one covering shifts; work/life balance does not exist. • Lack of payroll to support effective operational execution. • Wage disparity across immediate adjacent state lines creates barriers in recruiting. • Opportunities in communication and planning from the top to the field. • Customer demographic lacks social awareness
