Pros

* Several incredible engineers on staff to learn from. * Fascinating telecom stack. * Good TDD culture and peer review processes. * Wonderful location in downtown SB with parking. * Very easy interview.

Kontras

* Compensation is non-competitive, even for the area. * Engineering is locked to a select set of technologies, and leadership will not consider evaluating other / newer tooling. * Very poor mentoring. * Engineering (my dept) was riddled with favoritism, drama, and politics. There were several instances of engineers trying to steal leadership of projects from the engineers who actually proginated the ideas. * Monolithic application structure and aged deployment strategies. * Management is wholly devoted to the dollar, and puts all employee needs second.

Read more about it here: https://medium.com/invoca-engineering-blog/our-journey-to-continuous-deployment-cf21b2355051 * Mentoring has been vastly enhanced by embedding architects on each team, encouraging pair programming, scheduling passion time, and having regular one on ones with technical leaders * We offer competitive pay, excellent work/life balance, and an industry leading package of benefits We work hard at Invoca to make every employee, partner and customer experience a positive one.

Pros

’ve been fortunate to work at several great companies throughout my career, but Invoca has the strongest culture I’ve experienced. The people genuinely care about one another’s success, and there is a level of collaboration and partnership across teams that is rare to find. What stands out most is the leadership team. They don’t just talk about supporting employees—they actively invest time, energy, and resources into helping individuals and teams grow. Whether it’s removing obstacles, providing coaching, encouraging innovation, or creating opportunities for development, leadership consistently shows up as true partners. From a business perspective, it’s an incredibly exciting time to be here. Invoca has continued to expand its AI-powered product portfolio in meaningful ways that solve real customer challenges. The pace of innovation is impressive, and it’s energizing to work for a company that is embracing AI not as a buzzword, but as a core part of its strategy and customer value. The company also does an excellent job of aligning teams around common goals while still empowering people to take ownership and make an impact. There is a strong sense that everyone is rowing in the same direction and helping one another succeed.

Kontras

Like any fast-growing company, priorities can evolve quickly as we continue to innovate and respond to market opportunities. That can create occasional change and ambiguity and to some that can be overwhelming, but leadership is generally transparent about the reasons behind decisions and works hard to keep teams aligned.
