Pros

Work life balance. 4 weeks paid time off. Great leadership. Exceptional technical skills, I’ve learned a lot.

Cons

Recent layoffs were hard but I feel confident we are moving in the right direction and they were the difficult decisions that needed to happen.

Pros

Excellent place to work. Company culture is one that seems hard to find elsewhere nowadays. Managers care about their direct reports and not only want them to succeed but actively help them gain experience and develop the skills they need to advance in their career. No expected to work crazy hours beyond standard 40 every week but extra hard work never goes unnoticed

Cons

Could benefit from hiring more support in associate positions and build a strong foundation to promote internally

Pros

- Real client-facing technical work in regulated/FedRAMP environments; good exposure if compliance-heavy cloud is your lane. - Internal mobility exists on paper; managers may encourage internal candidates for promotions. - New management clearly understands their assignment and is saying the right things and taking initial steps that appear to be moving us towards a strong path forward.

Cons

- Promotion paths can be unstable; roles may get restructured mid-process, which makes career planning hard. - Management quality is uneven; promotion into management isn't always tied to demonstrated leadership, technical capability, or appropriate vision. - Limited structured professional development. - Compensation progression can be a friction point, including for internal moves. - Bonus payouts have come in far below target even for top performers, which has been rough.
