Pros

Cushy work life balance, easy to coast

Cons

Low pay; Extremely low expectations. Anyone competent bounces out quickly, so there is a complete leadership vacuum. Anyone with a long tenure is basically squatting on their obscure corner of meaningless complexity. From a technical standpoint the product and processes are incredibly unserious.

Pros

Remote Work, Flex Schedule, Benefits are decent enough.

Cons

It is very much a boys club between management, leads, and HR. HR is there to protect the company, not you. The moment you have something crazy happen (and you will because most people in positions of power are old retired navy guys who cant even work a computer usually and would rather praddle on about "the good ole days") and you report it to HR, you immediately will be retaliated against, even when HR says you wont. Its tough to say how you wont when they immediately inform your supervisor. I also hate how they are an "inclusive" company, and yet I have been called more slurs and received more backlash for being LGBT when its not even being presented, I just want to log in, work, ask questions, log off.

Pros

Some sort of job security; if your manager is good, then your job will become easier

Cons

Management loves to overstep; the phone policy is insane- stop treating adults like children, we have lives outside of work. No WFH unless your manager is a decent human being.
