Pros

Decent pay but they will try to skimp Very diverse workforce

Cons

Managers are totally incompetent and lack any training. Anybody can become a manager just by asking to be one. Absolutely no accountability at all. Basically doesn't matter when you show up or if you accomplish anything. Tons of overhead in the process, expect to just debate and tinker with things for months, projects take years and years, most are never even released. They hate the cloud and have a zero percent footprint in the open source world. IT is stuck in the 90s.
