Pros

The office was incredibly nice and free lunch was a great bonus.

Cons

Toxic engineering culture that promoted people based on the number of commits instead of their ability to be an engineer. Documentation, technical architecture, and technical leadership was not valued in engineers and ignored during their performance evaluations from VPs and the CTO.

Pros

Good benefits, lots of opportunity for growth and upward mobility.

Cons

Really disorganized management. Airport teams cannot hold onto leadership because there is no guidance or care put into them. Lots of scrambling and firefighting, rather than focused work and initiatives. Upper leadership is too disconnected from teams on the ground and it's incredibly obvious when they come to do visits. Personal friendships between colleagues usurp valid feedback and concerns from staff. Extremely sales focused, to the point where leadership jobs on site would get overhauled to focus on sales rather than on making sure the team (particularly those who don't sell) is happy and taken care of. Plus, the pay scale for leadership is really poor - most entry-level full time employees would make more than salaried managers just by picking up a couple extra shifts. The company has potential to be great - there are a lot of fantastic people who work there and the broader vision is shared; however, one should not taut the importance of hospitality when every decision made at all levels is sales-driven at the end of the day.
