Pros

Great benefits, current rate on salary DOE, great people to work with, acceptable life/work balance. Culture and values fantastic, many events for most popular holidays to keep up social interaction with everyone in the company, regardless how high or low you are on the totem pole.

Cons

Poor management resulting in many issues, mostly stress related. Advancement possible, not tied more to relationships with management, rather than accomplishment. Sizable layoffs yearly, ironically same day as issuance of annual bonus.

Pros

Company works on a global software platform at a scale that's a great challenge - comp sci problems! Cool stuff. Get to work with big brand names, airlines and hotels as clients - if you want to do something relevant, it doesn't get better than this Team has focused now on Hadoop ecosystem and solving our challenges and customer asks via that stack. Lots of learning opportunities CTO and leadership is great - totally revamped in the last 2 years - focused on technology but also take people development seriously (for example, we all have career development plans that our managers are held accountable for) Great people - not a lot of politics in the tech team itself - everyone is willing to help

Cons

Lots of change - in one way, company has the courage to make a change; in another, we need to be still long enough to learn if something is learning. Not all really impact us at the engineer level so that's cool.
