Pros
-Flexible PTO -Some WFH opportunities -When time permits, innovation is encouraged. Some teams are utilizing innovative technology
Cons
-Expect to work insane hours to meet deadlines due to lack of proper planning or input from developers. Deadlines and HLE's are decided without any input from developers. Work life balance is a joke -Many teams refuse to meet even the most basic standards of quality. Complacency is rampant and many teams refuse to adapt to new technologies -The culture is toxic. Expect an environment of constant negativity, threats, bullying from management, everyone trying to throw others under the bus to save themselves -Management holds meetings about "personal development" that are full of veiled threats of being placed on improvement plans and having your bonus stripped -When major issues occur, the blame game is in full effect. It seems like finding a scapegoat is preferable to finding a solution, and don't expect management to have your back. They will happily throw you under the bus to preserve the status quo and make themselves look better
