Pros

Some of the people are good ones.

Cons

- Ineffective and directionless leadership. Constantly changing objectives and projects. There was no consistency. I never felt ITRM had a clear vision or strategy. - Very cliquish good ol boy environment. If you've previously known or have good relationships with the managers, you will move up and do just fine. If you're not in the club, you'll definitely know it. - Toxic work environment. Blatant disrespect and hostility towards coworkers outside the clique. I actually saw the most toxic coworker I've ever worked with get laid off alongside me and rehired within the same year. - Constant Layoffs. They happen 2-3 times a year. - 5 days in office. Hybrid work environments are proven to boost employee morale and productivity.

Pros

Some talented engineers and team members who try to do the right thing despite constant organizational friction.

Cons

The technology organization suffers from a lack of strong engineering leadership and accountability. Managers often avoid making firm technical or project decisions, which leads to shifting priorities and unclear direction. When initiatives struggle, responsibility is frequently pushed downward onto engineers rather than addressed at the leadership level. There has also been noticeable turnover across engineering teams while leadership continues pushing a model where only a small number of onshore “lead engineers” remain while much of the development work moves offshore. In practice this creates bottlenecks where engineers complete work during normal hours but cannot move code forward until offshore teams review and approve pull requests. Leadership has also introduced initiatives without realistic planning. When internal AI tooling was introduced, expectations around productivity were abruptly changed (for example, reducing story point estimates under the assumption AI would accelerate development). At the same time, engineering resources were directed toward building an internal AI assistant that largely functions as a wrapper around existing models while higher-priority platform work remains under-resourced. Culturally, the environment can feel dismissive toward engineers. Turnover remains high, concerns raised by teams are rarely addressed, and negative feedback about the organization has been consistent for years without meaningful change from upper management.
