Pros

Great office location, really good colleagues. I felt like I was working with some really clever and innovative people.

Good challenges and lots of opportunity to solve complex problems.

Work From Home arrangements were fair and reasonable.

Cons

Recently gone through a few leadership changes. Some colleagues felt unsettled as a result. Arbitrary quarterly deadlines for software rollouts and engineering fixes created unnecessary pressure when trying to solve complex problems.

Advice to Management

Build some continuity at senior leadership, which will help with culture and direction. Stop quarterly cycles for software dev and engineering teams; focus on sprints/agile development methods more.
