Pros

- You can hide and shirk responsibility easily. - Corporate culture/matrix org structure is strong, for those who prefer that style of organization. - Opportunities to suggest innovation and get involved in special interest groups. - Work/life balance is fine if you have the courage to stand up for yourself.

Cons

Cubic does not offer competitive salary for the Austin area. From an engineering perspective all the below will vary by program. - Lack of product mindset and product ownership skills on the leadership team result in unclear priorities and an expectation for engineering to implement features that are not yet defined. - Disdain for iterative product development techniques under Agile; the organization prefers to use augmented + outsourced headcount to scale instead. There is an attempt at using SAFe, an unsafe scaled agile framework. - Maintain a legacy system that has never been cleaned up in its 20+ year hot-potato history across many development teams and many different sets of leadership teams. - Tech debt & massive tech stack results in difficulty becoming efficient at anything.

Can morale go any lower?

Pros

It is just a paycheck.

Cons

Silos, compounded with Agile, compounded with too many people on the brink of departure. Since Veritas took the company private they want people to operate as if they are working for a startup, however there is ZERO long term reward for that level of effort. Rank and file do not have access to stock in either ESPP, Options, nor grants. Salaried folks have ZERO incentive to put in long hours for the same flat pay, and compensation is NOT keeping pace with the marketplace. Real inflation as seen at the grocery store is close to 10% to 12% while very few people got better than 4% raises, and also huge increases in "benefits" out of pocket costs.
