Great place to start, bit of a dead end.

Pros

* Good benefits * Good talent pool * Interesting product * Was a great starting point, was able to try out a lot of things.

Cons

* Salary was way below market. * Too many meetings. * Middle management was too busy and ineffective. * Barren and disorganized Jira, projects were managed by word of mouth. * Culture of rude/bullying behavior was promoted, made extra degrading because it was perpetuated by people who had no life outside the company. * Awful technical debt. I was surprised we weren't still using magnetic tapes. * Outdated software architecture, little testing, no code reviews. * Inconsistent workload. Working long hours one day, have almost nothing to do the next. * No bug tracking tools, not enough dashboards, no visibility into what's happening. * Tons of repeated effort, so many projects could be consolidated. * And much, much more!

We are glad to hear that the benefits and talent pool are pros from your perspective. On the other hand it would be interesting and useful to get your insights about positions or teams where salaries are below market. Market based compensation planning is a area we are very focused on for 2022. As a current employee, if you are open to sharing more information with me please feel free to reach via email or Slack. -SVP HR
