Good compensation, but plenty of gotchas
Good compensation, but plenty of gotchas
Excellent compensation and benefits. Decent work environment. Generally good training opportunities, although not so great this year. Excellent benefits, and very nice recent improvements to family leave policies.
Internal support (e.g., IT support) is a complete train wreck.
For your product, expect regulation after regulation after regulation (all internal). A tendency to use low-quality internal tools instead of commercial ones.
Layoffs, layoffs, layoffs. Except you don't call them layoffs; you call them LRs.
Terminate the entire "acquire, then LR, then rinse and repeat" cycle with extreme prejudice. Don't outsource internal support. Perform satisfaction surveys for every internal tool and replace the ones that don't work (i.e., most of them.)
