Cons
Don’t go in with any expectations about salary, they won’t be met. Don’t expect to see your projects to the end, odds are halfway through they’ll get canned, you’ll get reorg’d, or both. Don’t expect to be given opportunities to learn or grow, management doesn’t want to “pay for you to pad your resume”. Don’t expect to do valuable or interesting work or get the credit for the work you do. Don’t expect to ever be considered successful in the eyes of the people above you. Do expect your career to stagnate, you’ll never get promoted here. Do expect to be micromanaged by your engineering manager and scrum master, and get pinged on weeknights, weekends, and holidays. Do expect a bitter resentment for the company to grow within you, it’ll be that much more cathartic when you leave. - no dogs in the office - everything is cloudformation - doesn’t contribute to the open source community - business model centered around screenshots - all roads lead to php
