Bad management

Pros

Good salary, good benefits and a great office.

Cons

Worked as software engineer for 2 years. The work would really depend on the team you are hired into. Some times go great work while other teams not so much. There are lot of components which are developed by different teams. There is absolutely no coordination among teams which leads lot of missed deadlines and blame games. The management in engineering is especially horrendous. There is absolutely no planning and when they are questioned on it, they fall back to "we are like a startup " line which is funny since they are a big enterprise company. And a bad location to have a company. It far off from everything and only way you can commute is by a car.

Pros

Helps you pay bills if you can stand the management BS! There is hardly any glory left to work here.

Cons

Employee morale is in a non-stop downward spiral. The culture in the engineering management is to ONLY look good to the VP all the time. The middle management is neither good at tech nor management. Hence, they break things quite often and then pass-on the blame IMMEDIATELY to the lower-downs without any proof to save their own skin. Of course, it is the exact opposite when it is praise time. A lot of talented hires from engineering have left for good. Smart H1Bs start looking for jobs on the west coast as soon as they arrive here. It is a dead end for loyal engineers due to lack of growth or other opportunities and rampant exploitation.
