Pros

Individual contributors work hard and are genuinely good people. Decent benefits package and salary compared to industry average.

Cons

- Culture is toxic — blame shifting and scapegoating are routine, making collaboration stressful. - Leadership struggles to stick to decisions; priorities change constantly without clear direction. - Broken processes are repeatedly reverted to, instead of addressing root causes or making valuable changes. - Accountability is rarely shared at the management level. - Processes are dictated by individuals without the technical expertise to understand their impact, which undermines productivity. - Development teams' input is routinely dismissed, even when it would prevent problems down the line.
