Pros

Competent coworkers, good food, gained good experience, actual offices rather than cubicles.

Cons

No flexibility around remote work.

Corporate gaslighting during the pandemic when we were repeatedly told that anybody wanting to work from home was being alarmist and lazy, and that it meant our work wouldn't be as good, while in the next breath being told that our production was the highest it's been.

Large-scale role changes made without input from the roles involved (4 roles were mashed together because "You're all just liberal arts majors with no specific skills.").

Not always given proper training to do the job.

Lots of things dumped on QA.

If you have a bad team lead, you're generally screwed because there often isn't enough oversight for them.

Advice to Management

If you hire good people, then treat them poorly, they will burn out and leave.

Also, if you believe that you hired intelligent people, don't think people won't notice if you're telling us things that don't add up.
