Pros

Great people with very responsible job executed flawlessly. Strong leader in the financial industry with a great mission.

Cons

A huge amount of legacy dependencies both in technology and people management. Agile transformation is helping, but you can get stuck in between the two worlds - agile and the one Swift is good at.

Pros

Good Benefits - Company phones - Good medical coverage - Work life balance

Cons

- Used to be a great working place until agile transformation took place. - Lack of direction from management. Agile transformation was deemed successful by management. But more people left after agile transformation in some tribes, despite pandemic. - Visibility is above everything. Management only appreciates those who are good at showcasing and talking. Many hardworking and talented people left because of this. - Agile is supposed to break the silos but in fact more silos created, thanks to the bad agile tribe setup. Lack of cohesion among squads within the same tribe. - More meetings after agile transformation, yet no tangible output produced. - Some agile coaches do not have software development or project management experiences, only have theoretical knowledge of agile and blindly chasing after the numbers. - Lack of career growth opportunities especially after agile transformation. It's a fact and yet management is still trying to deny it. Another cause of poor employee retention.
