Pros

Good pay, great coworkers, snacks, and the ability to work from home most days.

Cons

Missing some perks I got elsewhere, like an on-prem gym and cell phone stipend.

It seems like most things never get done, don't work right, or are late.

Everyone has a sense of irony. Whenever I assume something will work out, my coworkers say, "You must have never worked for IBM before," or "Prepare to have your hopes and dreams crushed." They are joking, but only half-joking.

Advice to Management

I don't know what the heck is going on. Everyone seems to be smart, conscientious, and hard-working, but it breaks down somewhere because nothing ever just works.
