- If you are mediocre talent you can coast for quite some time. - If you thrive in a compliance heavy environment, you'll enjoy working here. - If you like waiting many days and weeks to accomplish mundane tasks you'll do well here.

Cons

- Technology innovation at a very slow pace. - Inadequate middle and senior management that receives no serious coaching or mentoring. - No real focus on employee development. - Too much focus on maintaining margin without growing business.

Pros

Nine years of complex engineering challenges and professional growth. Strong camaraderie with talented colleagues across various engineering teams. Opportunities to work on high-impact projects and scalable infrastructure. Gained significant experience in complex system architecture and troubleshooting.

Cons

Abrupt end to a nine-year tenure without adequate transition or transparency. Heavy reliance on an aging, legacy tech stack that hinders innovation. Contradictory AI strategy: leadership mandates aggressive adoption while refusing to fund the necessary compute and tools for teams to actually implement it. Extreme short-term focus on EPS maximization at the direct expense of long-term stability and product health.
