Pros

- Good peers - Decent benefits - Living wage

Cons

- Management monitors and measures "performance" of development using source commit metrics, which are famously inaccurate for measuring performance of knowledge work - Management is bullheaded and doesn't listen to concerns or ideas of their employees - Lack of real direction and leadership - Grows through acquisition, but doesn't invest in integrating properly - Management is allergic to using Cloud technologies, despite being a "cloud company" - Doesn't invest in infrastructure - Cuts wages during "bad times" without reinstating them for months or years at a time, even with several quarters of record revenues - VP and EVP leadership are completely worthless, lead through fear and intimidation, and are only interested in their own upward mobility and pleasing Supreme Leader Mark B
