Ventajas
I worked at Placeable for about 2 years, up until the Ignite acquisition when all of engineering was forced out. Placeable used to be a great place to work, with a whip smart engineering team, laid back office culture, and good location in the RINO neighborhood. The tech stack was great and I learned a lot working there. Unfortunately that all ended when we were acquired at the end of April.
Desventajas
My only complaint pre-acquisition was that engineering salaries were a bit under market, but this was understandable considering the intangible perks (unlimited PTO, very lenient work hours, etc). Ignite acquisition resulted in about half the company being laid off, and surely most Denver-based employees will be gone through attrition soon. The office is shut down (all employees 100% remote now) and the culture we all enjoyed is gone. I'm writing this more in memoriam than anything else.
