Pros

Awesome peers, great tech, good health insurance.

Cons

Times they are a-changing. Some of us started at Mastercontrol for the culture, work/life balance, and chance to work with great tech and tools, but it is becoming more of a grind for the almighty investor dollar now.

Pros

Great people and culture. Solid benefits, Health insurance paid 100%.

Cons

Comp is ok. Promotions are almost impossible to get. Constant layoffs, maybe 5-7 times in the past 12 months? Engineering leadership is constantly switching priorities and lacks vision, transparency, and ownership. Long-standing traditions are now being canceled, likely to save money. Poor AI posture in engineering. Engineers are encouraged to spend ridiculous amounts on AI tokens, then the company does layoffs because it spent too much on AI.
