pulseM

Software Engineer

March 2020 - April 2023 • Dallas, TX

What I liked

The fast paced startup culture and opportunity to explore different technologies. It is important to fullfill your job description but also beneficial to have the opportunity to learn/fail sometimes, and pulseM did that.

What I wish was different

Post aquisition, I wish there would have been a dedicated engineering manager to effectively communicate between the engineering team and management. After the company was aquired it became less engineer/software driven and more sales driven.

Advice

When working full time for a company no matter the size or culture, it is always a transactional relationship where both sides should benefit. While doing good work and meeting expectations should be a priority, you should also make sure you are receiving what you deserve in return. That could be in the form of compensation, benefits, work/life balance, mentorship or career advancement opportunities.
