Pros: There are some smart and kind people there.

Cons: Incredibly high turnover. A majority of my team had less than 6 months' experience. You'd think they'd pair new people with experienced people, but no, they'd put all the new hires together. Your manager would ask you to do something, then during your review, they'd tell you that the thing they asked you to do lacked business impact. My manager flat-out told me that some teams will have more business impact, and that the team I was on was maxed out at "meets expectations" no matter how good we were. My face time with my managers ranged between 2-6 hours a quarter. You will always have to work outside of normal business hours. I had scrum calls at 11:30 at night. I got no help from our platform team during my working hours, which made my tickets stretch on or forced me to work until 2:00 am to be online at the same time as them. The managers I encountered looked at everything so simplistically, with barely a surface-level understanding. This is the level of thinking I encountered: "Person A made 5 tables, Person B made 7 tables. Therefore, Person B > Person A." Zero understanding of variations in complexity of tasks. That same shallow thinking applies to PR (pull request) count. If Person A thoroughly tests and validates their code and deploys once versus Person B, who releases a buggy piece of crap and has to deploy 10 patches, management will applaud Person B. If Person A writes their code DRY and Person B is a copy-pasta wizard, management will applaud Person B.

Pros: Structured Process Segregation of Responsibilities Pay

Cons: Rigorous Review process Half-yearly review cycle. Too many extra things to worry about other than the main work.

Pros: Work-Life Balance Remote Work

Cons: Leadership is clueless. Nepo Hiring.
