Pros

Pay is decent for the area (~120k), and there is some flexibility depending on client discretion. The environment is pseudo-hybrid, with occasional remote opportunities for emergencies or specific situations. There is a lot of autonomy on offsite projects, and engineers are exposed to many different technical areas, which creates good learning opportunities. Work can be fairly self-directed if you are motivated.

Cons

Management support is lacking. My manager is fully remote and generally only appears during a weekly team meeting, often seeming disconnected from the actual project work and team challenges. Career progression feels stagnant, especially without strong managerial advocacy. Projects are frequently understaffed, causing major milestones and responsibilities to fall onto individual engineers. Despite “flexibility” being advertised, remote work is very limited in practice, and PTO policies feel unnecessarily strict. Benefits are average overall, PTO starts low, and there is no dedicated sick leave or floating holidays.
