Pros: Everything moves at such a glacial pace that you can kind of get by without doing much, technically.
Cons: Byzantine and top-heavy. The technical organization is quite disorganized, and the most basic stuff takes forever.

Worst tech org I've seen
Software Engineer • Current Employee
Atlanta, Georgia, United States
May 2, 2024
Pros: Pace is glacial, so if you want to, you can chill.
Cons: Really basic internal APIs don't work. Like deployment and CI.
Assignments are unclear.
In Atlanta, they make you pay for snacks, like it's the airport or something.
Benefits are bad.
It's pretty clear that they outsourced a bunch of stuff 20 years ago and didn't really get the memo that cheaper isn't better. Everything feels cheap and low-quality.
