      Pros

      People were nice but they always talked about leaving the company

      Cons

      The tech culture in this company is absolutely horrendous. Stay away if you want to become a bettersoftware engineer. Not conducive to growth, knowledge sharing, or development of good software engineering practices. You pick up some bad dev practices while here. Management does not put tech on an equal pedestal as the business so tech gets jerked around a lot to meet impossible demands.

      Pros

      Strong engineering culture with exposure to large-scale financial systems, distributed architecture, and production-critical platforms. Good opportunities to learn modern cloud, performance, and reliability engineering.

      Cons

      Bureaucracy and internal politics can sometimes outweigh technical merit. Employees who take ownership or challenge inefficiencies may face delayed recognition, unclear growth paths, and shifting expectations, leading to frustration and disengagement over time.
