Pros

The merger with Bats created a superb engineering-focused culture. Hybrid/remote work came and stayed with Covid, but management does their best to bring people together in the office regularly, as well.

Cons

It's a large organization with a lot of inertia. Creating needed change can be a slow and difficult process. Regulatory hurdles can also sink otherwise promising projects.

Pros

The work atmosphere is mostly serene, with fair compensation, and the business development team is comprised of intelligent and personable individuals.

Cons

Mid-level management is complacent, lacking innovation, and displaying arrogance. They cling to outdated technologies that dull the mind and are hesitant to embrace established best practices, putting your tech skills at risk of stagnation. Engineering roles demands constant availability, even requiring a second phone for on-call duties. Recent graduates may find it unsuitable due to the limited chance to learn and apply current technologies.
