Pros

Allows remote work as an option.

Cons

Compared to the other large banking corporations I've worked for, certain teams are extremely unorganized and have more documentation on awards/recognition than their app functionality/setup.

Engineering Directors don't have any oversight and are extremely underwhelming in what they do. For example, they give incorrect information about the application they're in charge of, show a lack of urgency in updating information about internal systems, and demonstrate a lack of understanding/comprehension of the product/setting future goals. They are also typically 15-30 minutes late to meetings.

Advice to Management

Figure out what the directors do, because it's almost worse than having nothing.
