Pros
During my 11+ years with AccessData conditions for devs improved steadily, and that's due in large part to upper and middle management putting more and more support behind test automation efforts (as well as increased support for build automation improvement and improved project management). In addition, I appreciated management's (middle and upper) willingness to listen. The communication between management and the rank and file also improved over time.
Cons
During my time with AccessData only one of my managers offered to mentor me and help me to increase in skill. I wish that management had sought to cultivate greater talent from within by encouraging and supporting skill development. One manager shared with me that he felt that AccessData could do better in this regard.
