Pros

Pay is at the middle of the market.

Cons

Lots of turnover and moving people around. Bureaucratic. They don’t follow SCRUM properly in my department, and there is a complete lack of a competent Product Owner on my team. High stress, long hours at times. Lots of new developers who aren’t getting proper training or mentoring. Clean coding practices are not followed. The codebase is low quality. This might largely depend on what workstream you are in. Avoid Dev IT workstreams D & E.

Advice to Management

We haven’t had a manager in months. We are “self-managing,” lol.
