Pros

Large company with some opportunity to move around.

Cons

1. Antiquated processes that become demotivating and discouraging 2. Development is not Agile, more waterfall. 3. You have to fill out a time card (I know this seems nit but it is usually a clear sign of how outdated and broken the development process is) 4. Management acts more like taskmasters than force enables. Management tows the line instead of removing blockers and representing dev teams by communicating need for change up the org chart. 5. Constant context switching, tons of meetings with everyone in them, overbearing workload with unrealistic expectations, and lots of unnecessary stress.

Pros

Great onboarding experience with a supportive team. Leadership has been accessible, training has been well organized, and everyone has been willing to answer questions and help me learn. The culture has been welcoming and collaborative.

Cons

Still new to the organization, so I have not identified any significant concerns at this time.

Pros

Many opportunities to learn from some very bright coworkers. All the lateral moves your heart desires.

Cons

Employee retention is an issue. The practice of laying off good workers to either replace them with cheaper, incompetent workers and/or put a heavier workload on your exceptional employees will inevitably cause turnover and impact the customer’s experience. Upper management’s expectations do not align with what is actually feasible.
