Pros

some of the people you meet here are truly amazing, those who actually know how to do the job are willing to help you better yourself.

Cons

Management is going down, priorities change every week if not every day, they worry so much about ticket touching or ticket count, that quality of the work does not matter to them, they got some really good L2's working that deserved to be L3 but don't want to promote them, some L3 that deserve L4 but get same response (it's all about finance for your promotion)... what a joke. Then they hired L2 that act like kids and don't respect leadership and do nothing, but if a L3 does that it gets in trouble. Management has become a huge circus from top to bottom.

Pros

Co-workers at L7 and below - very talented, diverse workplace who are all there to work hard, have fun, and make history.

Cons

L8 managers + don't care about the work teams are doing, and use threats to keep people performing at double capacity. Loss of all work-life balance, stressed out employees who are always thinking about the next round of layoffs.
