Pros

stable and good company, nice people to work with mostly, relative work-life balance except few departments

Cons

talent management has problem, they look too highly on the FSA certificate , which is only good for students but very very bad for experienced professional who did not get chance to do the exams due to family or other intense schedule.

Pros

Solid benefits package, manageable workload. Can be a comfortable landing spot if you're able to tune out the outdated processes and legacy mindset.

Cons

The company undergoes frequent restructuring, and technical leadership often lacks the depth needed to guide modern engineering decisions. The culture can feel rooted in an older, more traditional mindset, and promising initiatives frequently get stuck in POC hell rather than reaching production. Career progression is also very manager-dependent; the wrong reporting relationship can significantly stall your growth. Overall technical bar is low — if you're trying to sharpen your skills, this environment may hold you back rather than push you forward.
