Pros

Great people in the rank and file, technical job and ok pay. Work from home opportunities for some, along with some liberal timeoff policies for some.

Cons

Politics and flying under the radar is only way to survive, lots of good old boys versus managers that can stand on their own. You learn how and when to state things (and to whom) instead of concentrating on getting stuff done. Some people ultra busy, others seem like they have checked out. Bad morale, a few always get choice projects and the rest get the scraps. No training except web based, health benefits are bad. Very dysfunctional teams, no team spirit.

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.
