Pros

Fair pay upon starting Nice amount of PTO (might change in 2020 due to Cigna merger) Opportunity for personal development Work/Life balance Flexible work hours

Cons

Slow promotion/career growth Management seems to care more about delivery than empowering and developing their employees Management wants to solve all of the problems themselves, rather than listening to those under them that are closer to the problem. There has been a shift in culture since the Cigna merger, employees are simply "resources" now and are treated as such. They have benefits, they just aren't very competitive.

Pros

Work/Life Balance There are some very talented people

Cons

Pay is below industry average for IT Management and leadership are blind, refuse to work with each other/communicate Lots of higher ups have political agendas, don't really care about the client/end user and only focused on big projects that give them visibility resulting in overlap or duplication of efforts Lots of copy paste of mediocre/crap code Stack ranking-management refuses to acknowledge it but only 1-2 people under a team are going to get that promotion no matter how well you do Directors and above really like to throw people under the bus Lack of collaboration/innovation--they vouch for such a culture but rarely practice it. Instead of promoting each other, lots of teams do not embrace it. Frat boy culture - beware, especially if you are a female in IT. Definitely seen some sexual harassment borderline lawsuits occur.

Pros

A lot of helpful, personable devs - the

Cons

Many more management types with soft foreheads, conflated sense of self-value, and fanatically agile. Too many meta meetings. There's a lot of communication difficulty in business needs and developer resources - which leads to confusion and frustration on both sides, leading to more meetings.
