Pros
- being able to work remotely - minimal work and time tracking from management - good 401k matching plus instant vesting - decent vacation allocation per year
Cons
1. CPO (Chief Product Office) is acting as CTO - CPO has no clue how to run a technology team and holds minimal accountability for the leaders he's appointed to run Engineering - CPO also has no clue how to run Product - instead of focusing on building innovative features, he's focused on acquisition of companies to fill in the gap 2. Our Engineering team is not capable of delivering anything - software is full of bugs - most releases result in client-impacting incidents - QA team is a joke - technical debt is never addressed 3. CEO not qualified to run the company - no transparency on direction of company - no empathy towards employees 4. No accountability for our leaders - PMO is non-existent - some leaders don't really actually contribute anything to the organization, except scheduling meetings to ask redundant questions in order to seem involved and important - our security team doesn't know half the stuff they should but our CISO constantly applauds them publicly for the most mundane of tasks 5. Compensation - pay cuts across the board - no bonuses across the board - no raises across the board - however we're hiring more VPs - however we're acquiring more companies
