Pros

Benefits are great here, onsite and off.

Cons

The organization is top heavy. The people at the bottom are actually more qualified than the majority of the the AVPs and VPs. The HR department doesn't act on complaints against managers, and the complaints are NOT anonymous. You will mostly find a hard time moving up if you ever speak up.

Pros

Lots of room for growth and development. Work is challenging and exciting especially if you like finance. Co-workers are great, helpful, and make the environment more enjoyable.

Cons

No room for full-time employment. Some opportunities are not offered to contract which is understandable but still sucks.

Pros

Great pay and getting OT pay. Awesome team of SMs and RTEs who felt like family and we all wanted to see each other succeed. I was exposed so a lot of situations which strengthened my skill set. Learned the SAFe model and it looks great on resumes. I personally had a great boss, bosses boss, and RTEs.

Cons

Executive leadership is ruining the culture. Many of the amazing Directors, AVPs and RTEs left due to the poor Executive leadership who do NOT know a single thing about Agile principles. Releases are 1x/mo so you have to work one Saturday a month which can sometimes be longer than a normal workday. Release Mgmt team is very difficult to work with and can be very disrespectful. They don’t hide it and it’s accepted. Execs killed remote work.
