Great place to work - Avis employé Anonymous Datstat

I think it is a great place to work with flexible hours, Wednesday snacks, company lunches, etc... Engineering group has excellent development processes in place including continuous integration, code reviews, and git for source code control. Development environment uses latest version of .NET, Visual Studio, modern C#, reSharper and the Atlassian suite of products (Stash, SourceTree, Jira, Bamboo, Confluence). The latest software being developed is using the leading technology: MVC, ASP.NET Web Api, jquery, angular.js, Twitter Bootstrap, less.

Sales driven company means that custom projects are often included in the product sale. This can impact the engineering focus. Need to support old product versions/technology like ASP.NET WinForms and WebForms.

Really flexible hours, fun company lunches and activities, free Wednesday breakfasts, and etc. are all great perks! One thing I really loved about DatStat was that it was a very open and fun environment to work - it is a great learning environment where people are willing to teach you new ideas, skills, and concepts that you didn't know about. I left because I went back home for a 3-month summer vacation, but for college students/young people especially, DatStat is the perfect part-time job or internship experience - you get to determine your hours, the pay is great, and you learn a lot while having fun (also free food and coffee).

When I first started there wasn't really an in-depth training protocol for new employees so it was hard to fully dive in to your work (while understanding the company's mission), but in the past few months they've improved that heavily for new (and current) employees - so there's a lot of great change taking place.
