Pros

Shifting towards CAMSS.

Innovation through acquisition of companies, both small startups and large.

Good benefits for young people.

Competitive salary if you know your worth.

Retina MacBook Pros.

Lots of different tasks to do. You can gain lots of experience.

Cons

Needs to improve IBM Notes (Internal email client).

Needs to improve the way internal applications work. They are very slow and full of clutter.

Expense reimbursement with an AMEX Corporate card is very troublesome.

Work/life balance can be hard to manage if you work at home. You are very tempted to work all day. This is normal for Software Engineers, though.

A little slow at times. Sometimes you wonder if people know you're on the team or still around.
