Good pay, but they get a lot for their money
Good pay, but they get a lot for their money
Excellent benefits and pay. Get to work with very smart people. Get to work on projects that affect millions of people. Always get to work with new technologies, or at the very least try all the new stuff before the public. Flexible hours.
Very political. Reviews are graded on a strict curve, so even if the whole team rocks, someone has to be on the bottom.
If working on a service, you must be on call 24/7 for 2-week periods throughout the year. You feel like, even when you're at home, the job never ends.
