Mostly maintenance work and testing. Good work-life balance
- Good work-life balance
- Free food/drinks in the office
Work quality depends highly on the team you're in. In some teams, you're only given maintenance work and testing, rather than any big projects in C++.
Too much micromanagement and bureaucracy. And it keeps on increasing day by day with bad decisions from management.
Software engineers are treated as second-class citizens. You don't get a say in a lot of decisions that only impact you.
Terrible focus on developer productivity. Because of a lot of bureaucracy and micromanagement, your productivity is quite low.
Priorities keep on changing constantly. So, you waste almost half the time just doing context switching instead of actual dev work.
Unless you're extremely lucky, your learning curve becomes stagnant within 1.5 years.
Decrease bureaucracy & focus on developer productivity
