      The team culture needs improvement, and engineering leadership follows outdated practices.

      Pros

      There’s very little to learn in terms of technology. Engineering managers often operate more like admin or HR, focusing on leave tracking in 1:1s rather than providing constructive feedback or engaging in meaningful technical discussions. Engineering leaders tend to accept flawed decisions, expect others to align without question, and discourage healthy technical debates.

      Cons

      The QA team is treated more as a support function with limited growth opportunities. If you’re in the early stages of your tech career and looking to grow, this may not be the right place for you.
