Bad Engineering Culture,

Pros

It's a really easy job. Decent pay. Pretty good benefits. There are interesting problems to solve if you search hard enough. You can rest and vest if that's your thing.

Cons

Lack of leadership. Most people on the team seem unmotivated to actually work. I'm not even sure what my manager does all day. Very politically biased, some would say way too woke. The old guard of engineering are pretty dismissive to new people/ideas. There's a culture of non-collaboration, made especially bad by the rona. Constantly being told "things will get better". Wayyyy too much red tape when it comes to merging code. More senior engineers are more interested in pet projects and are never kept in check by management.

Pros

Friendly working environment and colleagues Ok overall compensation and benefits Standing up on important social issues

Cons

Some times, it could be cheap. The performance stock is cut in half due to the stock price is more than doubled, this could be understandable to some degree. But compensation raise is so little (may not apply to all though), well, if the company really cares about its employees, why it doesn't give good (by reviews from managers and colleagues) employee a reasonable raise? Just to save a few stocks? With the company always achieves >20% growth, what can you say about it... Effectively, it is a cut, so we will see if we worth much else where...
