Pros

- great salary - great benefits - very talented colleagues who will help you make it through - Great to have on your resume

Cons

- Toxic management only manages up versus coaching/managing their team. - Extremely long hours that are consistent, especially when you are on big public-facing projects. It is the 'norm' to work 50+ hours. - No work-life balance. - Upper management is an absolute joke, and they don't care about their staff. They wait to look at anything until the last minute and then change it all, so people have to crunch due to mismanagement. - Overqualified people are put in jobs with long hours that don't give them any satisfaction, just a lot of work. No perspective for promotions unless you play the political game well. - Everyone thinks they are a little bit too awesome

Pros

+ Excellent benefits + Really cool people to work with + Projects are exciting, if stressful

Cons

- Project/Product Management isn't consistent across teams, making it really hard to collaborate between the tech teams. There's no real top-down facilitation of Scrum or other SLCD - As you probably are aware, the company has had multiple layoffs. Job security is in flux
