Pros

I stayed for as long as I did due to remote work and unlimited PTO.

Cons

The culture in the company’s narrative and the actual culture are two completely different things. I don’t know how the leaders can talk about the importance of mentorship and communication while not holding managers accountable to spending a tiny fraction of their time communicating with their employees. Management only looking out for themselves continues with pay. 130 individuals were recently laid off to “save money” yet the company is still going to reward managers with bonuses when the company is struggling and the stock price is performing poorly. Individuals who received good reviews were told they can only get a 3% raise while managers get much higher % raises in addition to their bonuses. The company has had significant turnover in the executive team in the past year and the new CEO sends out strangely worded emails about executives leaving that quite frankly make him look like a petty person who lacks the emotional stability to lead an organization.

Pros

Good benefits Managers who are nice Company is doing well financially Coworkers are capable and generally very nice to work with

Cons

The development process is pretty similar to the one I used in my last job in 2012--nowhere close to CICD. Testing is done by QA, infra is owned by the platform team, BE is owned by BE team, FE is owned by FE team. There is a lot of bureaucracy and throwing things over the wall. Service architecture contains many layers of services. Most products lack automated tests and canaries. Production incident troubleshooting seems to involve casts of dozens. There are yearly layoffs and fairly frequent restructures. Benefits have been cut. I know that's very common these days in a tough job market, but the company has been posting record profits. There is a technical ladder, but once you advance beyond Sr Dev, there is little chance to code or be involved in day to day work.
