Pros

The only pro is that you got paid.

Cons

All other aspects of the company including, benefits, team culture, management advice & direction (or lack there-of), and the persistent feeling that you can be fired at any moment were not on-par with any Financial Services company I have worked for in the past. You become noticeably aware that they will off-shore you to IST at any moment.

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.
