Pros

tele-commute option for many positions, casual environment, travel if you want to client sites. There aren't a lot of good things that I can say about my employer. Filling this out reinforces how much I hate my job.

Cons

absurd number of hours expected, work/life balance difficult to maintain, project managers who are generally incomptent with software that is marginal quality. many managers, not many experienced staff and limited product knowledge, poor documentation. The expectation is to work 80+ hours, and it contributes to burn out along with bitterness between staff. It is time to move on toward a different career path with quality products and a better salary where employees are valued.

Pros

It is a big company with lots of funding

Cons

- Does not care and will make sure you know it - 2 week grace period to find your own contracting project ON YOUR OWN otherwise you are let go - word through the grapevine is that the talent planners and project managers have been advised to not help remote employees as their way of killing two birds with one stone (laying off employees without having to announce the layoff and force RTO) - you are forced to become a “yes man/woman” and coast. No growth opportunities
