Pros

I worked with some really amazing and smart people! Many of the frontline and mid-level leadership folks show up 100% of the time. They work hard, collaborate well and find creative solutions to a very aggressive roadmap.

Cons

Layoffs every 6 months, leadership turnover is very concerning and C-Suite says they are transparent but how can you be when you are always planning the next round to employee eliminations?! Only way to describe the business side of the house is constant chaos.

Pros

Good benefits Managers who are nice Company is doing well financially Coworkers are capable and generally very nice to work with

Cons

The development process is pretty similar to the one I used in my last job in 2012--nowhere close to CICD. Testing is done by QA, infra is owned by the platform team, BE is owned by BE team, FE is owned by FE team. There is a lot of bureaucracy and throwing things over the wall. Service architecture contains many layers of services. Most products lack automated tests and canaries. Production incident troubleshooting seems to involve casts of dozens. There are yearly layoffs and fairly frequent restructures. Benefits have been cut. I know that's very common these days in a tough job market, but the company has been posting record profits. There is a technical ladder, but once you advance beyond Sr Dev, there is little chance to code or be involved in day to day work.
