Pros

I appreciated the relaxed work as an Engineer, although I would say I was on a team that I was not engineering a ton.

Cons

Poor management, poor onboarding. I had a manager scold me on a Zoom call with other members of the dev team present on that call. I felt he could’ve done it privately and embarrass me like that, throwing a temper tantrum is never a good look for a manager. The same manager would also talk about other people’s performance on our one on one meeting, as if it’s any of my business to know how someone else on my team is performing. If you want to do meaningful engineering work, go somewhere else. I hardly implemented anything! I was literally wasting my time doing mundane operations that were mostly copy and paste. I don’t know how you see the growth in copying and pasting but that salary high wore off as I seen where this type of work could lead me nowhere useful for a job switch or interview.

Pros

There can be good teams, but they are getting few and far between.

Cons

Senior management do not listen. There is no positive work culture. (I.e. a fellow employee just had their 40 year anniversary at the company and got 0 recognition from the company.)
