Good to start but slow knowledge progress overall.

Business Outlook

Pros

A person can start and polish his IT and/or managerial skills. Some knowledge would be gained.

Cons

Limited knowledge gaining opportunities, some departments are stuck in old technologies and do not want to change due to their leaders lack of interest in learning (but in gaining). People relations are neutral. Overall many manual operations for things can could have been automated long time ago.

pretty good compared to the industry in the area

Senior software engineer

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

There are a lot of good reasons to work here. The company puts a lot of effort into training. The company puts a lot of effort into making nice workplaces, and it tries to get people into offices quickly. The most senior management is excellent.

Cons

The perks are sort of mediocre; while there are free snacks, drinks, and lunch four days a week, the options are somewhat crappy. Recruiting standards are dropping in some cases, people seem to be quota-focused more than quality employee focused. There isn't a strong culture of terminating people that don't perform. Middle management is often weak, lacks direction, or completely negligent of their employees.
