Pros
  • Good work environment
  • Overall people are friendly & smart
  • Challenging and interesting work
Cons
  • Huge technical debt on core engineering side.
  • Bad work/life balance (7:30 am to 6:30pm + evening meetings)- You have to end up in the good teams to be considered (some trading teams)- Lots of politics & work priority scheduling starting 2019 which is slowly down lots of projects.
Advice to Management

Find a better balance between tech debt and new features. Many framework/products are undocumented or very poorly documented. So with the turn over many products decay over time and are poorly supported by core-engineering.
