Pros

The people I met and worked with over the years were hands down the best part of the job—there are some truly amazing employees here. I’m sure there are pockets of teams that operate really well. Unfortunately, I wasn’t in one of them, but I could see the potential for it to be.

Cons

Toxic environment. The compensation structure didn’t exist, and no one cared enough to build one. HR was useless for years, and the leadership team I worked with often let things slide without any follow-up or accountability. The potential for growth is basically nonexistent, even if you’re a strong employee. Roles are unclear, workloads are unrealistic, and while there’s plenty of talk, there’s rarely any action.

Pros

Good pay, benefits and the ability to work from home (for who is interested)

Cons

Extremely political company, full of favoritisms and dishonesty, with most employees being afraid to speak the truth or contradict their managers. I've rarely seen such disconnect between Product and Engineering, with so many self-contradicting messages between what is being preached and what is actually done. There's a crude lack of empathy for employees at any level, with the top leaders pretending that the company is better than other monsters in the tech industry, but you rarely see mass layoffs anywhere else from one day to another (and folks learning about it while being on vacation). While some of the ex-FAANG engineers are top notch, they are completely incompatible with leaders from the gambling industry, that have unrealistic expectations on project timelines, deliverables and their quality. To summarize, unless you want to live in a continuous lie where Yes Men are awarded and failures are re-packaged sold as wins, stay away from the Betting and Gaming division.
