Pros

The benefits plans are good but HR is not. Generally flexible and trusting work environment. Enthusiasm for growth, speed, diligence, intelligence, ideas, and determination. Younger workforce is motivating - we are in tech after all! If you have the guts to put your neck out on the line and you win, you can big win.

Cons

Constant paranoia about layoffs. Turnover. Middle management inadequacies. There is something sadly lacking that I can't put my finger on...even after 7 years. Some sort of resistance against progress which is rather depressing. What is it?? Other times CA really knows how to play and plays hard. The latest attempt to rebrand is pretty strong and I feel the future could be bright if all players put egos aside and learn to play together for the greater good.

Pros

fast moving company, opportunity to add lots of new skills to your resume

Cons

I've witnessed 8 large layoffs in 10 years. Current executive leaders are doing a good job steering the company, but don't seem to care much about the employees. Very minimal opportunities for advancement. Company is going Agile, even those departments that have nothing to do with development, so you'd better be drinking that kool-aid.

Pros

decent pay and most everybody drinks a lot

Cons

Worst mid level management ever. They are led by awful leadership who use guardrail to guardrail mgt styles. Their decision making ability is pitiful and their products are antiquated. For an antiquated product to keep up in todays market you need fresh thought, action and thinking. If you exhibit any of these traits you will be immediately quashed if you are not an executive. Check CA's average time of employment for employees before you sign on that dotted line. Good bye forever CA.
