Pros

High pay Very little work to do and can get by doing very little 3 hour lunch breaks Can swipe in at 10 am and swipe out at 12 and it counts for the day Managers don't really care about RTO for a lot of employees

Cons

Progression is very slow. It might take you 5 years to go up a level. Managers seem clueless about what employees are up to especially in QA No investment in QA Using Google Sheets for test cases Work gets stripped away from you until you've left with very little to do and then they'll put you on a layoff list They rate you on the amount of bugs you raise in JIRA so it's recommended to be on a terrible dev team
