Pros

Some business units have an independent view on the technical stack and on process. The overall compensation level is good and competitive, including a bonus package.

Cons

Bad competence of the management, corporate mud, and a very regulated environment due to the fintech specifics.

SecOps procedures and paranoia about hacks lead to a lot of pre-installed software on the corporate computer. This makes software life harder, and development productivity suffers.

Advice to Management

Have more frequent rotations within your own circle to welcome “fresh blood” and new ideas. Otherwise, it looks like you are going in circles.
