Pros

Good work-life balance, decent pay for the Boston area, and good benefits.

Cons

Hostile environment, ancient technology, tons of tech debt, bad practices all over the place, lack of vision, struggling finances. Lots of perks and benefits were removed after the most recent layoffs.

Advice to Management

It doesn't matter what I or anyone else could have said; they are going to keep managing the company and following what used to work in 1990.
