Pros

Nice facilities, competitive pay for some positions, matching 401K. There are some talented people and decent managers.

Cons

Can't seem to stay the course, with each new year there's new leadership and "new" strategy put in place. Most recent leadership seems to have the right customer focus, but time will tell. Each year and with each reorg, there is a morale busting cloud looming over employees as they are told layoffs are inevitable. Wears the workforce down and creates a culture of "manage through fear".

Pros

Limited knowledge transfer and onboarding support for new team members. New hires are often expected to figure things out with minimal guidance. Workplace politics can sometimes impact collaboration and decision-making. Managers may not always be actively involved in supporting team members or addressing concerns. Full-time employees are occasionally treated differently than contractors, creating an uneven work environment. Documentation and process knowledge sharing could be improved. Work culture can be stressful at times, leading to challenges with work-life balance and employee morale.

Cons

Good exposure to projects and technologies. Opportunity to work independently and take ownership of tasks.
