Pros

Pay was an average living wage

Cons

As a manager walking into a culture that was already brought to it's knees with racial bitterness; hindsight I should have started looking for a different company then HR is non-existent until a supervisor or manager gets involved, unless that supervisor has tenure , then lets go ahead and give him a slap on the wrist Upper management does not listen to local managers. Supervisors discriminating against a certain type of employee, changing their hours, and assigning them the work that no one else wants to do. All of this is something a local manager should have been able to handle with discipline, not avoided. Eventually this led a much larger issue where, upper management, the company, and finally HR decided to "settle," by rolling my head.

Pros

Great coworkers and talented engineers who genuinely support one another. Opportunity to work on impactful projects and solve real business problems. Exposure to modern BI and data technologies. Strong team members who are willing to go above and beyond to deliver results. Good learning opportunities for self-motivated individuals.

Cons

Leadership and management style can create unnecessary stress and turnover risk. Frequent micromanagement and excessive focus on responsiveness rather than outcomes. High meeting volume reduces time available for focused engineering work. Priorities and stakeholder commitments are sometimes established before consulting the engineers responsible for delivery. Limited trust in experienced employees and their ability to manage their own work. Internal growth and mobility can feel restricted. Work-life balance can be impacted by shifting priorities and urgent requests. Lack of recognition or compensation alignment when additional onsite expectations or workload demands are introduced. Having a non-technical BI manager overseeing technical engineering work can sometimes result in unrealistic timelines, misunderstandings of development complexity, and decisions being made without sufficient technical input.
