Pros

Onsite cafe, fitness, good employee culture( many employees are caring, friendly). Relaxed dress code.

Cons

Pay for current position is 10-15,000 less than other companies are offering for the same title/position. Flexibility and WFH used to be and still is the advertised company culture. However they no longer allow many employees to WFH (depends on manager/Department) Many managers/ leaders leaving across multiple departments. This makes it very hard to develop relationships and receive growth as it takes time to build relationships with your manager. Lack of communication/ structure regarding steps/requirements for attaining growth. Positions are posted for formal purposes only. Many times the person has already been chosen prior to the posting. No set “rules” in place with HR for posting positions. It “appears” to be put in place, but is not. Many managers “sell” the possibility of growth, but is not happening. Due to the contract model in place I could not recommend this to a friend.

Pros

- Established company with a long history and relatively stable business operations. - Provides a sense of job stability compared to many organizations navigating rapid changes in the current AI-driven market. - Lower risk of frequent restructuring or large-scale layoffs than many high-growth technology companies. - Opportunity to work with experienced employees who have deep institutional and domain knowledge. - Predictable work environment that may appeal to individuals seeking long-term stability over rapid change. - Strong choice for professionals who value job security and a steady career path in an uncertain economic climate.

Cons

- Documentation is limited or rusted, and many operational processes lack clear runbooks or standardized procedures, making onboarding and troubleshooting more difficult than necessary. - If you're coming from a modern, fast-paced engineering environment, the organization may feel behind current industry practices and tooling. - Internal politics can sometimes outweigh technical merit or execution. - There are teams with very long-tenured employees where change and innovation can be difficult to drive. - Decision-making often involves multiple layers of approval, resulting in significant bureaucracy and slower execution. - Processes can move slowly, and collaboration is not always transparent across teams, leading to inefficiencies and occasional confusion around ownership. - In some areas, roles, responsibilities, and operational processes are not clearly defined, creating unnecessary chaos and inconsistent ways of working. - Engineering standards and best practices vary considerably between teams, making cross-team collaboration challenging. - Organizational change tends to happen slowly, which can be frustrating for employees who are focused on modernization, automation, and continuous improvement.
