Pros

+ Pretty good work experience, can be a good place to build experience to go somewhere better. + Nice coworkers. + Benefits are solid. + Decent work-life balance.

Cons

- Lean philosophy = phase out positions, work your existing employees harder, don't give anyone a pay raise (unless they're management). - Salary starts low and they continually make you work harder for the same pay. They also just instated a new policy to reduce overtime pay for overtime-eligible employees, no pay reductions for management though! - No work from home starting August. Not even 1 day a week, even if you can do 100% of your work successfully from home. Compare that to virtually every other company in the area. - Company just doesn't care about employee needs (unless they're management). Frustrations are logged and ignored. Equipment (computers, chairs, etc) are old and won't be improved unless there's a need, and even then it can take forever. They don't try to make any adaptations or improvements for the sake of employees (unless they're management).

Pros

Wonderful internship experience. I truly enjoyed every aspect of the internship, from the people and team culture to the meaningful projects and great location. It was an incredibly positive learning experience, and I would highly recommend working there.

Cons

While the business professional dress code may not be for everyone, I personally didn’t mind it and felt it contributed to the professional environment.

Pros

Not much, if you want a place that's okay with mediocrity, then welcome.

Cons

They blindly follow industry trends not industry standards. We have an initiative to use AI to increase productivity, without a proper plan, without security in mind and lack of general understanding. Consistently understaffed, for example there are teams or parts if teams that have max 4 developer type roles with 36 apps or APIs to support - this has lead to inconsistent code and effort as employees are spread too thin to be able to deliver quality work. Management refuses to take responsibility for issues that arise from being understaffed. Teams are not consistent in what tools and pipelines are used causing even more confusion and delays. Double standards: they don't want to properly promote or give raises to hard workers. Upper management made it clear to direct managers that "meets expectations" was a fine thing to give... To employees doing more than their fair share of work and are doing work outside of their role since they have no one else to do it do to being understaffed.
