Pros
  • Some grass-roots groups that want to push and use brand-new tech as it comes out.
  • Small groups of 'dev' culture, with pizza/beer nights and hackathons, etc.
Cons
  • Company still led by old-school suits. Style: tech.
  • Culture is very old-fashioned. Suits look down on 'jeans-wearing' devs.
Advice to Management

Be more open to modern tech practices if you want to retain and recruit top tech candidates. Otherwise, people will move on to more interesting working environments.
